Thread: Make your own sensor bar! No wires, no batteries!

    Make your own sensor bar! No wires, no batteries!

    So it was recently revealed that the sensor bar was, in fact, nothing more than two infra-red lights, and that the wiimote did all of the sensing, rather than the other way around.

    Well, what else do we have that emits infra-red light? Fire! In a dark room, two candles about a foot apart in front of the TV are enough to replace the sensor bar.

    no, you posted that it was just two infrared lights. you never talked about replacing it with candles.

    Now I can play my Wii and set "THE MOOD" for other things afterwards.

    Nothing like playing with your Wii by candle light.

    Doesn't seem safe or practical.

    If you tape the "IR" infront of the Wiimote with gold duck tape, it works, too.

    What happens when you change the distance between the two candles? I'm curious, so if someone could find out for me, that'd be great
