My PilotWiings: Reality project’s interface is complete. It displays the wiimote orientation and control settings for the PalmZ. Flight commands will be transmitted via serial communication to an Arduino microcontroller that will interpret the controls and translate them to the 17 bit IR messages that the PalmZ expects. It will then broadcast the commands via an array of IR LEDs, allowing the PalmZ to be flown via wiimote!
I used to read Melissa Havergal’s other socialite blog before she had to shut it down, but now she has a new one. Kinda fun.

MoMa currently has a great design+tech exhibit going on called Design and the Elastic Mind. There are a vast array of projects on display covering subjects such as sustainable practices, sustainable energy, nanotechnology, data visualization, and physical computing.
Of course, you can always come to the NYU Interactive Telecommunications Program’s (ITP) 2008 Spring Show to get a dose of other design+tech projects ! You may even find a project of mine at the show…
