Wiimote + SketchUp

Visit: http://www.sketching3d.com.ar/ for more info about Sketchup.

A demonstration using the Wii remote to control SketchUp.
You can zoom, orbit, pan, walk... you can make whatever you want because you can assign shortcuts to the Wiimote Buttons.
In the video I show that you can change the scenes with the wiimote for making presenations too.
For making this, I use the script from:
http://www.alexschreyer.net/cad/when-wii-met-sketchup/ and I make some changes.
I use candles instead of the wii sensor bar.

Are those candles on your monitor???

[danisla83]

Yes, i´m using candles as an alternative source of infra-red light. Instead of the wii sensor bar i´m using candles :P

Where do you get all the extra tools? I have only about half of what you have.

@danisla83 this is soooooo good, very nice idea with the candles, just great.

Johnny Lee has revolutionized the world, i forgot about sketchup, but now i see how this new tech expands with such size that the possibilities are endless. Great

the last half of the video is lame because all you are doing is clicking on different saved camera views...not really orbiting, zooming, or panning.

Yeah you can use candles as a sensor bar

I have a Gyration remote. Do you think I can get it to do something similar?
