I just told you that the Wiimote has an infrared camera in it.  The "sensor" bar is just 2 infrared LEDs that the Wiimote takes a picture of, and based on the position of the infrared LEDs, it tries to extrapolate it's position relative to the sensor bar.  For the Sony system, the camera takes a picture of the wand and figures out where the wands are in relation to it, based on that (maybe the size of the ball?).  So for 4 players, the Wii system utilizes 4 cameras.  For the Sony system, for 4 players, you have ONE camera.

Actually it's 6.  3 on each side.  Not trying to alter your point any, just tossing a piece of trivia out there for those intersted.
