Thats pretty sweet! Wiimotes are pretty powerful for what they are.

I had no idea they could do holograms like that. Any more info on how they do that?
-
gr8 but how .hadn't ever imagined the wii remote to do those things
-
I "think" the wiimotes are just tracking the hands. It looks like IR is being projected out from the wiimote stands. The IR is then reflected off the users hands to get a reading from the wiimotes. I've seen that done before

It's because there is so much easy interfacing code for them and they are ridiculously cheap! I can buy a nunchuck for ~$8 and it looks good, anything I make for myself if going to look like crap probably and not work as well!

you serious. 8 bucks from where.
