(Johnny lee)'s back again with his wiimote interactive whiteboard. commercial versions of these things are expensive and heavy. his technique doesn't even need a projector, just a computer, a wiimote and a simple ir emitting pen. the pen is just a stylus with an infrared led in the tip. hit the video after the break, and you can grab the software from his site here.

I really like the idea of a touch screen.

Gloves?? like an ir glove so when you press two fingers together it emits IR lights??? that would be pretty cool....
