Wii Interactive WhiteBoard

Since the Wii controller can track sources of infrared light, I decided to make a pen that emits this invisible light source. For under $50 I bought the supplies (listed below) to create such a pen. This pen involved severe modding, and a whole days work, but is defiantly worth it. To summarize, This allows you to turn any monitor / projector into a multi-thousand dollar touchscreen device.

• Supplies Used
• Infrared light emitter & detector x1 (The Source)
• General copper bounded wire x3 (The Source)
• Red push button switch x1 (The Source)
• AA battery power source x1 (The Source)
• 30W Soldering Iron x1 (The Source)
• 15 ft Solder x1 (The Source)
• 1 “Big Daddy” extra large pen x1 (Buck or Two)
• Total Cost - $58.78
