Amazing work, it's simply too cool to be true. I doubt any developer will use this technology, but it's the most amazing usage of the Wiimote I've seen so far.

This is Johnny Lee's Homepage, by the way: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~johnny/

He has some other Wii mote projects online that are pretty neat, too.

There is a Front page? Hmm cool, I never went there. The Forum is the only place I wander around when I come to Wiichat. Searching the Forums for Head Tracking didn't bring up anything, either.

Why do you think that cool tech won't be used in games?

Itd be wicked in single player for peeking round corners....wouldnt work well in split screen multiplayer.
I can just see the stupid mnigames thatd come from it..."Lean around corners to dodge the rabbits being thrown at you".
