Tips and tricks for hacking your Wii sensor bar to imrpove the reception
Jan 22nd, 2010 by Nintendo DSi
The sensor bar is discreet and most gamers don’t even notice it after they have setup their console, unsless a problem arises. You need the sensor bar to send information from the console to the wii remote and back again. It should be setup in a good location that enables the signal to travel to its destination without any obsitcles getting in its way to disort the it.
The sensor operates using two constant beans of infrared light to talk t the Wii remotes. When you move the Wii remote whilst playing, the light beams are made too move on the sensor which in turn tells the Wii to move the graphics on screen so it gives to illusion you are moving the object in play.
Some people experience the cursor on screen jumping around when they have not moved the Wii remote in the coresponding action. This could be because the sensor is picking up another source of infrared light, or because heat is interfearing with the beams. If you are having trouble then make sure the sensor is only picking up the remote and nothing else in the room. Also ensure it isn’t getting to hot.
Cool Tricks:
Since your WiiMote “sees” infrared light, you can use it to view infrared signals! Go into your sensor setup again, point your TV remote at the WiiMote and change channels, you should see your screen displaying the infrared signals.
Move your Sensor bar where it can’t be seen, take two candles, place them 8 inches apart in front of your TV, now use them to play your Wii!
