Has anyone here actually tried head trac ...

I'm very interested in trying it myself, it doesn't seem to be too difficult given you have the right software (found here). Thing is your computer needs to be bluetooth enabled to connect the wii-motes, and I'd have to use my sister's laptop :D. I'd really like to see if anyone here has done this successfully and would like to give their opinions.Has anyone here actually tried head trac ...
On the Wii? I don't think there are any Wii games that use the IR pointer like that.



On a PC with a Bluetooth-paired Wiimote, though? No, but that's just because I already have a TrackIR 4 Pro for that purpose. (I suppose I could try it out with one of my Wiimotes at some point, though I need to think about how I'd mount the Wiimote while leaving the TrackIR in its usual place so as for the latter to emit IR light that a reflector clip on my hat can bounce off to the Wiimote's IR sensor.)Has anyone here actually tried head trac ...

It seems EA is bringing out a game (this month?) that has an easter egg hidden in it which makes use of the headtracking feature.Source: (At 2:25)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgKCrGvShZs%26feature=related

Hopefully devs start using it. If EA does it, more people will.

I have tried it and must say it is complete genius. I wasted an hour and a half just doing this thing its addicting, and not expensive:D
