Johnny Lee, last seen letting his fingers do the waggling, is back with more Wiimote mods that put Nintendo's own work to shame. Using the Wiimote's infrared camera, an IR light attached to a pen, and some custom software, he created a virtual whiteboard system that allows him to control a computer touch-screen style using either a projector or an LCD.
If you have an LCD and something capable of emitting infrared light (or have access to a Radio Shack), and if you can Bluetooth your way to Wiimote awesomeness (which we unfortunately cannot), then really, you should be messing with this right now.

now to think of what to do with the multi pen tracking... pick a few AutoDesk or Adobe apps and we have ourselves a winner.

Johnny Lee is ghetto! He does 95% of what big corps do with millions in in research with little more than a wiimote, laptop, projector, disposable pen, and LED.
