Smoothboard 1.6 is a Wiimote Whiteboard \ Wii Whiteboard software that allows you to turn any screen surface into an interactive whiteboard easily with just a Wii Remote and an infrared (IR) pen.
Since the Wiimote can track sources of infrared (IR) light, you can track pens that have an IR led in the tip. By pointing a wiimote at a projection screen or LCD display, you can create very low-cost interactive whiteboards or tablet displays. Since the Wiimote can track upto 4 points, up to 4 pens can be used. It also works great with rear-projected displays.
Using infrared (IR) light pens and the Wii Remote, it is possible to create very low-cost multi-point interactive whiteboards and multi-point tablet displays. Johnny Chung Lee, Carnegie Mellon University. The software can be downloaded at http://johnnylee.net

The IR-Pen is what makes Wiimote IWB function as an IWB. IR-Pens can be relatively easy to make although many users choose to purchase one out of ease, convenience or a need for professional appearance.
