Let's take a closer look at the belt

First, look at the list of materials on this post.




Then, take off the switch and tie up both black and red wire together with tape.




additional materials:
1) a clear plastic container
I'd been looking for this kind of thing everywhere (Wal-Mart/Home Depot/Office Depot/Office Max/Bed, Bath & beyond/Linen&Things/ Kohls etc.) Finally, I got it from HobbyLobby for $0.77!
2) a magnet clip from Office Depot for $1.99
3) double-sided tape



Put the Infrared light with a AA battery in the box and clip it on the belt.



Done!

Next time, I will talk about how we can calibrate the screen with this belt!

WiiMote WhiteBoard (step-by-step)

I see a lot of PC users having problem trying to connect Wii Remote with Bluetooth, but I haven't seen this problem with any mac users though.
I can't recommend which Bluetooth will definitely work, but I'm using a MacBook and here is what I have.



If you have a problem connecting yours, you might want to check this out.




After you got the WiiMote Whiteboard software installed, you will get a folder that looks like this.

double clicks on the icon and click open

After you opened the software, hold 1&2 button on your Wii Remote.

until it gets connected

If you got a list of error message, just quit and open the application again.

Then, use your IR pen to calibrate the screen (each dot at a time).
The calibrate window will disappear after you got all four dots calibrated.


If you want to do double-click, go to preferences ---> Mouse Control ---> Assist Double Clicks
