Adaptive Controllers: Video Gaming Accessibility
Link: GimpGear Broadened Horizons' clients often utilize power wheelchairs while struggling to use tools with buttons, levers, knobs, and handles in a world designed around manual dexterity. Opportunities for travel, communications, recreation, education, and employment are severely limited due to the additional complexity of meeting their needs. Those limited by quadriplegia or tetraplegia, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, muscular dystrophy, and Lou Gehrig's disease or ALS find our solutions ideally suited to their needs. However our solutions can also greatly simplify the lives of those with less limitations also; such as paraplegics, those who have suffered a stroke, brain injury, spina bifida, or other disabling disease or injury.

I recently saw an article about the Audeo, a product from Ambient Corporation which will enable voiceless communication almost as easily as thinking about it. The Audeo has a wireless sensor that captures neurological activity that the brain sends to the vocal cords, and then digitizes this activity to turn it into speech that sounds very much like the person's actual voice. The product may be available by the end of 2008. For more information, google Audeo and look at the audeo website.
