Nov 11, 2009 - Have you read the links provided in the description? The answer is provided there, but basically, no. You just need the wiimote and a bluetooth receiver on the computer.

How the Hell did this get 2,859,260 views!?!?! I know it is amazing, but I just can't imagine over 2 million people searching "Low-Cost Multi-touch Whiteboard using the Wiimote" Or anything to get to this video.

Nov 15, 2009 - Nope, the wii remote control itself is the important part here - it has its own infra red camera which actually tracks the pen's movements and bluetooth which connects communicates with the PC. Besides, it also has an accelerometer, a speaker and vibration. These could eventually be implemented by software developers, making the Wii remote quite valuable in the PC world, although it has never been intended to be so. Eh, bloody long post. Cheers!

Nov 17, 2009 - so what would happen if you set up 2 wiimotes?? would you be able to have multiple button uses? I.E. set up a pen to send different signals like a tv remote? or would that be too complicated and bulky?

Nov 19, 2009 - Actually, if you have 2 wiimotes, you can have better tracking. That's what I did. I had one wiimote pointed from the left side, and one from the right. It had much better tracking.

Nov 22, 2009 - If you are using Smoothboard, you will just need a Bluetooth adaptor that is using the MS Bluetooth Stack. You will just need to press the 1 + 2 buttons and Smoothboard will automatically connect your Wiimote
