yet another wiimote mod..

..this time simulating spraycan motions for realtime virtual vandalism which could have been handy for games like Marc Ecko's Getting Up and Jet Grind Radio, yay!



two guys at the college of Bauhaus-Universität in Weimar Germany came up with this idea for their masterthesis and are already planing on setting up a virtual environment where one or two players can simultaniously spray on virtual walls, NO damage done!

do i smell a jet grind radio-clone for the wii?!

probably not at this time and before jumping to conclusions, let's actually wait and see when the developers of the wiispray finish their thesis and release it to the public and/or thirdparty manufacturers come up with a clone for much cheaper.
as of now there's only that one prototype of the hacked wiimote but i'm sure we can expect even cheaper wiimote-detachable cases like the WiiWheel if such a device is appreciated by large public.




buy it use it break it fix it.. technologic!

technically speaking Martin Lihs and Frank Matuse used an original Nintendo Wiimote, Adobe Flash and a WiiFlashServer for their virtual insanity, hax0red it up a little and voilà, a WiiSpray. once finished you will be able to choose from different caps and a color palette to fulfil all your vandalism needs and even compete or collaborate with your buddy online!

so long.. tag on!
