Yet another unconventional use for the Wii Remote, war robots! The US Army have been experimenting with the Wii Remote as a controller for specialized robots used to clear minefields in war-torn countries. Original remote control devices were complicated and difficult to use, but apparently the Wii Remote now fits the bill due to its simplicity!

What's next, Wii Remote-controlled reconnaissance helicopters?
