Yet again, the pros finally catch up with the hobbyists, a year later, for way more money, way to go! BTW the hi-res camera is IN the WII remote, It is capable of simultaneous tracking of four blobs (IR spectrum).

I saw this at the FIRST World Championships in Atlanta, and it was pretty awesome. The system syncs really easily and the Labview libraries and WindRiver WPI Libraries make it literally 7 commands/functions that need to be called. The NI FPGA platform with CRIO has a lot of capability

Just a clarification: this particular robot arm is not equipped with a high-resolution camera. Although there are quite a few companies using the FPGA-based NI Smart Camera with LabVIEW to convert their robotic arms into vision-guided or vision-feedback based robots.
