Waging a Wiimote war: missile launcher versus cat

In light of the Wiimote-controlled RC Car from last month, it was only a matter of time before someone would decide to control a toy missile launcher via Wii remote. From what we could assume, this missile launcher is connected via USB to the computer, and it’s the computer which receives the control signals from the Wiimote. The controller is then used to manipulate the toy missile launcher by pressing the directional buttons and the trigger to fire.

Some people commenting on the video are doubting TheFuzzyAlchemist (the guy who posted the vid) about actually using the Wiimote to control the launcher. We, however, know that it is possible through GlovePIE – or at least in theory.

Anyhoo, observe: Missile Launcher + Cat = domestic war.
