Man uses Wii Fit to control vacuum cleaner

Developments in tech mean we can now get robots to do our dirty work. But one hacker has made a game of cleaning up, persuading his Roomba vacuum cleaner to obey Wii Fit’s Balance Board. Check out the video.

Using the board’s Bluetooth talents “Ron” Tajima synced the robo-cleaning companion to obey his every movement, steering it by leaning left and right just like you would when playing Wii Fit.

Let’s hope it doesn’t give Ninty any ideas though. Wii Chores anyone?
