    Here’s a hack gadgetheads will love. What happens when Roomba meets the Wii Balance Board? Say hello to the “Surfin ba”

    Japanese Roomba enthusiast Ron Tajima attached a serial Bluetooth adapter to the Roomba. He then used the Wii Balance Board’s Bluetooth capability to steer the Roomba around. The extent to which he leans on the Balance Board controls the radius of the Roomba’s turn and its direction.

    Check out the YouTube video with its kitschy music and sped up assembly footage making it all seem so easy! Even easier than just letting the Roomba do its own thing.
