During our soft opening, one of our faculty "Jesse Schell" suggested us to research the new wii device "Wii Motion Plus". After the research, our conclusion is that this new device will not help our platform, it is because that we are getting data from the infrared camera inside of the wiimote. What Is the Nintendo Wii Motion Plus?The Nintendo Wii Motion Plus is an add on for your existing Nintendo Wii remote (wiimote) that makes it better and even more advanced. According to the official E3 release from Nintendo: Nintendo's upcoming Wii MotionPlus accessory for the revolutionary Wii Remote controller again redefines game control, by more quickly and accurately reflecting motions in a 3-D space. The Wii MotionPlus accessory attaches to the end of the Wii Remote and, combined with the accelerometer and the sensor bar, allows for more comprehensive tracking of a player’s arm position and orientation, providing players with an unmatched level of precision and immersion. Every slight movement players make with their wrist or arm is rendered identically in real time on the screen, providing a true 1:1 response in their game play. The Wii MotionPlus accessory reconfirms Nintendo’s commitment to making games intuitive and accessible for everyone. Nintendo will reveal more details about the Wii MotionPlus accessory and other topics Tuesday morning at its E3 media briefing. This improvement to the Wiimote will supposedly add fine control to your Wiimote - one of the only things lacking from this awesome input device. The Wii Motion Plus uses a multi-axis gyroscope along with a built-in accelerometer (and the already existing external sensor bar) for extremely accurate motion sensing.The Wii Motion Plus attaches to the end of your existing Wii remote, though future versions will most likely be all-in-one. |
