This work has led to the implementation of a system where a WIIMote is used to detect markers consisting of different sets of reflecting spots, illuminated by a set of infrared LEDs mounted around the WIIMote. The sistem includes also an interface to define a map of the markers, and a guiding tool to support navigation of a (possibly blind) person that moves from one place to another pointing the WIIMote against markers put in the environment.

The activity has been developed in the framework of developing robotic applications around the WIIMote.
