Wii for Military Use - Wiimote Diffuses Bombs
Wiimote Diffuses Bombs
Published: Apr 1, 08

The Wii Remote now has a new application in the real world. The U.S. Military is experimenting with using the Wiimote to control a bomb-defusing robot. The idea is that this new method will make bomb disposal safer.

Sure wish I could get a chance to play with it…although I’d probably get hurt.

Now imagine using a 'Wiimote control' to defuse an unexploded bomb. It's enough to give your Mii character a nervous breakdown... (metro)
