Wii controlled segway style NXT bot

When [Epokh] sent in this Wii controlled segway style bot, we remembered a post a few months ago where someone made a balancing bot, but hadn’t completed the Wii code. Well, [Epokh] is going to show you how to implement the Wii controls with the Lego NXT system. He’s found the links to all the software you need and broken down the configuration step by step. He’s been busy lately, let’s hope he keeps it up.

    That’s pretty cool, wonder if this is possible with a ps3 controller, those use a bluetooth too.

    That is awesome. I think a PS3 controller would work too, just be a bit different.

    This is a pretty cool hack, I have tried something similar to this, but it was mostly just a modified version of an iDog.

    The modified version of iDog would be this. I like the hack, but it’s not original.
