  • You're awesome!!

  • Live demos of this system and 4 to 5 examples of different IR pens styles will be presented at Maker Faire, San Mateo, CA this weekend. Check the program for Wii Interactive Whiteboard when you get there. And be sure to say, "Hi, I saw you on YouTube."

  • Smoothboard has a right click feature. It takes an extra few seconds, but it works. What you do is hold your IR pen in one place, and hold the IR light ON. After a few seconds, your right click menu will pop up. I found this feature actaully confusing to new users so I usually turn it off. It would be possible to put a radio into an IR pen, and add a 2nd button, but this would require FCC approval, so it would take lot more time, and expense.

  • do you have a program for that wii mote hook up thingy or via bluethooth

  • what do you mean by " hook the wiimote up to the laptap"?
