The Wii sensor bar is a device used with the Nintendo Wii gaming console. Despite its name, the sensor bar doesn't actually have any sensors in it. Instead, it contains a pair of infrared (IR) LEDs (light-emitting diodes) that emit infrared light. The Wii remote, also known as the Wiimote, has a sensor at the front that detects the infrared light emitted by the sensor bar. Here's how the Wii sensor bar works: Placement: The sensor bar is typically placed above or below the TV or display screen. It should be positioned where it is visible to the Wii remote. Infrared Light: When the Wii console is turned on, the sensor bar emits infrared light. The light is not visible to the human eye, but the Wii remote can detect it. Wii Remote Detection: The Wii remote has a sensor at the front that receives the infrared light from the sensor bar. By tracking the position and movement of the infrared lights, the Wii remote can determine its position relative to the sensor bar. Motion Tracking: The Wii remote's accelerometer and gyroscope sensors combine with the information from the sensor bar to track the motion and orientation of the remote. This allows users to interact with games by pointing, swinging, and performing various motions with the remote. It's worth noting that the Wii sensor bar is not essential for all Wii games. Some games rely more on button inputs and motion sensing capabilities of the Wii remote, while others may use the sensor bar for more precise pointing and motion tracking. If you have any specific questions or would like further information, feel free to ask!

Another trick if you don't have candles, but do have a Switch: Pair the right Joy-Con to a computer, download and open an application called Joy-Con Toolkit, activate the IR Camera (make sure to enable "Flashlight mode"), and point your Wiimote at it.

I may still be a bit confused, but that means the Wiimote is not sending the informations to the sensor, but it’s actually the sensor that normally sends it to the Wiimith infrared light. Hence why the « sensor » technically isn’t’ needed, and other infrared sources can be used to send the infrared to the wiimote, which is moving compared to what she receives, and detects it.

[@DieserEineee]

It‘s kinda wrong. The tracking in the Wii uses only gyro sensors. These track motion, but have to be calibrated once in a while. The Wiimote also hat gyro sensors, but they don’t handle anything related to pointing. Everything on the Wii that is related to pointing is handled by the sensorbar and wiimoted hidden camera on top of the controller. The gyro sensor is mostly used for things like swinging or sometimes aiming
