Rockin' your Roomba with a Wiimote

by David Hinkle { Dec 27th 2006 at 9:55AM }

It seems nowadays that most people are interested in using the Wiimote for everything but playing games. Well, in this latest instance, the Wiimote combines its powers with a robotic vacuum device (Roomba). The video is a lot of narration, but when they get down to actually controlling the Roomba, we think you'll like what you're seeing.
