In December, Johnny Chung Lee, then a Ph.D. candidate, posted a five-minute video on YouTube that became an Internet sensation. To share his innovation, Johnny Chung Lee posted a video on YouTube. In it, he uses a Wii remote controller and“head tracking” glasses to make a screen image come alive. The video showed how, in a few easy steps, the Nintendo Wii remote controller â€' or “Wiimote” â€' could transform a normal video screen into a virtual reality display, with graphics that seemed to pop through the screen and into the living room. So far, the video has been seen more than six million times. That video, together with others that Mr. Lee, now 28, posted on YouTube, have drawn people to the innovator as well as his innovations. Video game companies have contacted him and, in September, M.I.T.’s Technology Reviewnamed him as one of its top innovators under 35.
