File this under: ” Creative uses for the Wiimote” Two modders basically “took an industrial robot, strapped a tennis racket and a sword to it, and put it under the control of a WiiMote.” Video after the jump.

This all started with the KR16 which is a industrial robot by Kuka. I wouldn’t want to be around that thing when it’s armed with a sword. We ran very light pattern recognition on the WiiMote, so it would copy our sword swings
