More about Wii Remote

• Similar to a light gun, the Wii Remote has a
  light sensor that allows it to detect where it is
  pointing in relation to a television screen. Wii
  Remote senses light from a sensor bar with LEDs
  being arranged at each end of the bar. The bar
  may be placed above or below the television, and
  must be centered. It is not necessary to point
  directly at the sensor bar, but pointing away
  from the screen itself will disrupt
  position-sensing ability.

More about Wii Remote

• Wii Remote's one-megapixel image sensor is used
  to locate the sensor bar's points of light in the
  Wii Remote's field of view. The known real-world
  dimensions of the spacing between the LEDs on the
  bar allows the Wii Remote to calculate its
  position and orientation in space relative to the
  bar. This information is in addition to, and
  supplemented by, the 3-axis acceleration and tilt
  sensors in the Wii Remote.
