IR Sensors and Transmitters question
« on: July 21, 2008, 02:46:34 PM »
Is it possible to mimic the IR transmitters and sensors that the Wii has.  Im looking for the same idea but in a computer application.

To clarify:

There are two transmitters spaced apart on one end, and a separate sensor which detects the two IR transmitters.
