Why? Because he can of course. Ron Tajima had some time, a Roomba, and a Wii Balance Board. Naturally he put them all together, threw in a Surfin’ USA track from the 1980’s, and now he can control the Roomba as if surfing.

“This is my third Roomba hacking,” Tajima says. “This surfin is safe, useful (it’s cleaning), and easy for nerds. Wii balance board is great!”

Cool stuff for sure. It oughtta get your nerd blood boiling and give you a reason to use your balance board.

Controlled with a Wii Nunchuk, the evil teddy is a modified BJ Bearytales that can move its mouth, blink, move its arms and scare the hell out of your young child. Just tilt the Nunchuk or use the joystick to control it. Scare them now so they will be prepared for the Terminator future.
