Wii Fit Balance Board To Control World Of Warcraft

So you thought the balance board was just for Wii Fit? Well think again. Matthieu Deru and Simon Bergweiler, two researchers from the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence, have managed to hook it into other applications including the immensely popular online role playing game World Of Warcraft.

Using the balance board you can move your virtual character around by leaning in the direction you wish to travel. If these guys can bring this technology forward another step and have it based on a running motion then gamers of the future may end up looking more like toned athletes than couch potato's.
