Physically-Challenged Gamer Hacks Together Custom PS3 Controller

Posted by Soulskill on from the quick-get-a-patent dept.

Destructoid has a neat post about a gamer whose condition prevents him from using a standard video game controller. With the help of a company called GimpGear, which markets devices for people with limited mobility, he designed and built a custom input device that makes use of fingers, toes, and even sips or puffs of air to control his favorite games. Pictures and a video of the setup are both available in the post.
