This is the long version, the short version is available here: http://youtu.be/alBHtmm964E

I added an ADJD-S311-CR999 photo sensor, a LSM303DLHCTR accelerometer/magnetometer/thermometer, and an ATMega8u2 in to a Nintendo Zapper.  Results: Suitable for use on other TLO's than just CRT's.  This turns out to be surprisingly easy to do.
