"Apparently some enterprising hax0rs tore apart their Wii sensor bar, only to find a couple of standard IR emitters. It turns out the "sensor" bar doesn't actually sense at all, it just sends out a pair of IR beams which can then be triangulated by the Wiimote."

it's awesome, the sensor bar is actually wireless... put two standard remotes uder your tv, and have a friend repeatedly tap buttons on it, then move your Wiimote and it will show up on the screen

if the sensor bar does what we all want it to do, who cares if what's in it is really simple? Though I don't have a clue what "a pair of IR beams' are, but its being said that its crap, all I know is that as far as I know, it does what its meant to do
