This is an interesting piece of work. Imagine waking up to sceneries rom various parts of the world in the morning, instead of staring at the opposite HDB block….boring.
There’s an IPhone app to act as the remote, and the images and app to control the perspective runs from a Mac. It’s also mentioned in the Winscape website, that a Wiimote can be used to track the motion.

Alright! Hold your horses if you have not bought your Wii Motion Plus. Even if you have already bought your’s, no problem. You can still get the Nyko Wand+
This product was exhibited at the CES 2010. What they have done is to build in the Wii Motion Plus into the WiiMote-size Nyko Wand+, so you won’t have to attach that addition piece of hardware to your WiiMote making it look quite awkward. With the Nunchuk it looks even messier. So this is cool. No additional attachment, no worries of breaking the contacts between the WiiMote and the Motion Plus.
This is a “must buy” item for me when it’s available in March.
But something puzzling me though. Why didn’t Nintendo think of it?
