When Nintendo debuted the Wii controller (or Wiimote) in 2006 it was a breakthrough in gaming controls. The Wii use motion sensors in a way that makes players feel much more a part of the game than traditional controller buttons. Players can move objects and characters on the video game screen simply by moving the remote around; it can detect no only where, but also how faqst a person moves the controller.
The Wiimote works by combining three technologies: a gyrometer, an accelerometer, and an infrared sensor. The gyrometer uses gyroscope technology to detect how the remote moves through three-dimensional space; theaccelerometer detects the speed at which the Wiimote moves. Finally, the Wiimoterelays this information via infrared light to a sensor placed on the bottom of the television, which receives signals just like a standard television remote control.
