> "The humble WiiMote will celebrate its sixth birthday this year and, after some early teething troubles as a hand-held projectile, has been responsible for turning out-of-date game-console technology into an innovating gaming platform popular with young and old alike.  This talk will explore the innovative design of the WiiMote, from the way it is used to the technology inside."
