All you need is a Wii Remote and a powered Sensorbar... The Wii remote is connected to my (very old) laptop via Bluetooth and the sensor bar is powered by switching the Wii on after the Wii Remote is connected to the Laptop.

Using the Wii sensor bar as a Virtual Reality Device and the Wii Remote to track the movement (see johnnylee.net for the genius who made this), I have attached the sensor bar to my head (very attractive) and have the Wii Remote pointing at me. The Wii Remote has an Infrared Camera inside which sees me moving my head (thus, the sensorbar) and knows from which angle I'm looking at the screen. As I'm moving around the screen changes perspective of the demo room based on the angle I am looking from relative to the TV

Sometimes I can get the effect of the targets being in front of the screen to work, but be sure to check Johnny Lee's movie if you haven't already. It is seriously worth having a go at. Also, he has the patience to tell you how to get this working on your machine.

Song by Rammstein called Reise Reise.
