<p style="margin: 0px; font-family: Arial; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;">I just bought a nunchuck, based on a tip from a person at the recent robotfest, to gain access to some accelerometers.</p>

<p style="margin: 0px; font-family: Arial; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;">I thought I had the magic screwdriver bit to open the nunchuck, but no. So, I'll obtain a driver so I can look inside. But, I would love to know how you are interfacing nunchuck with Arduino. Maybe I don't need to take the device apart!</p>

<p style="margin: 0px; font-family: Arial; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;">I do not have a wii or any software that would work. I can take a look at the <a href="http://processing.org" target="_blank">processing.org</a> site you cite. An engineer friend told me he came across a site that had complete schematics for the wii; he's trying to recall where he saw them.</p>

<p style="margin: 0px; font-family: Arial; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;">Please do bring your setup to the next meeting. Obviously, I'm most interested in working with the output of the accelerometers; using the nunchuck's other controls would be a plus, too.</p>

<p style="margin: 0px; font-family: Arial; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;">I'm not a programmer, but I can probably adapt a Squeak, Smalltalk, or similar file to do some different things. I've just begun studying Squeak.</p>
