Arduino + Nunchuck + Pan and Tilt Camera

Using an Arduino Diecimila board to let a Nintendo Wii Nunchuck control a camera mounted on a “pan&tilt” mechanism with two servos. Nunchuck’s accelerometer (an ADXL330) is used to move the camera. If the Nunchuck’s “Z” button is pressed, the camera position is locked.
