What do you mean by using IR? AFAIK IR in wiimote is used for detecting position of pilot based on location of IR lanterns.

The label used by joystick test websites says "Wii Remote IR," so that's what I wrote. The IR detector output is a little strange, and I still haven't been able to decipher it, even in my own programs.

I don't think there is any chance of implementation for this input.
I don't see any proper use for this. Moreover it is a rarely used feature.
