Head-Tracking WiiMote.

First of all, this is incredibly cool. (http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~johnny/projects/wii/) Just go to the URL and look at the bottom of the page. You'll see an embedded YouTube video that shows Johnny Lee setting up a WiiMote so that it tracks the movements of your head and makes it look like you're essentially looking through a window. It's hard to explain, just watch the video. Well, my question is, I looked at the tutorial (next to the video) for setting the WiiMote up to your PC with bluetooth. The problem is that it says "First, start up the BlueSoleil software and activate your Bluetooth adapters if needed." Does this mean that I need some other bluetooth device to make this work, or can I make it work with just the WiiMote and PC? So, I just thought this should be brought to your attention, plus I would like an answer to my question. Thanks.

    There's already quite a few threads on this. You're welcome to ask your question in any of the existing ones, either in G&T, or in Moe's Technology Tavern.
