JULY 22 - 24, 2008This paper proposes the employment of the Wii Remote controller, better known as Wiimote, as an useful tool for
educators and researchers. The quick development on fields such as Wireless Sensors and Actuators Networks or Hybrid
Systems, and their applications, requires engineers with a solid knowledge in these areas. To achieve this goal the
Wiimote becomes a great alternative to other options due to its great variety of analog and digital components, for a very
low price, and the good documentation about it existing in Internet. As will be seen in this paper, the possible academical
and research uses of the Wiimote are almost endless and cover many interesting problems in control engineering
