Demo Wii Remote widget from WiiOperaSDK.com

This widget demonstrates the WiiRemote class in the Wii Opera SDK 3.0 preview, a free JavaScript package meant to promote the features of both the Opera browser and the Nintendo Wii.

The WiiRemote class automatically detects the existence of up to four Wii Remote and/or a keyboard. It reads key presses and limited motion sensing data in Internet Channel (Wii Opera) software.

This widget can be run using both a keyboard and a Wii Remote (held as either a pointer or a controller). When using a Wii Remote, it detects the 3D position, the roll angle, and button presses.

(Note: To use a Wii Remote, one must be actually using a Wii, not a computer with a BlueTooth connection.)

If you have a Wii, try loading the widget in its version of Opera. JavaScript in the Internet Channel (Wii Opera) has an extension as the opera.wiiremote object, which allows for reading button presses and pointer-based positional data from all 4 Wii Remotes. This widget is a demonstration of the capabilities of the Wii Opera SDK, a JavaScript software library I've written so that developers can create free games for the Wii through the browser.
