I still have my IR light-pen somewhere that I bought for his Wii Whiteboard app[1]. This was just a few years after the Minority Report movie, and multi-touch was still something that felt super sci-fi to me at the time. Seeing it come alive with just a wiimote and an IR pen was neat.<p>1. <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;johnnylee.net&#x2F;projects&#x2F;wii&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;johnnylee.net&#x2F;projects&#x2F;wii&#x2F;</a>

I remember this. I was a teenager and this inspired me greatly to learn more about tech.
