Abstract: | People with upper-limb disabilities have limited access to gaming as a hobby, as they are unable to make use of conventional game controllers. While there are existing solutions, they have do not make use of a “menu switching” system and as such, still require a user to actuate all the inputs of a conventional controller. This is often not possible for users suffering from the aforementioned upper-limb disabilities. Additionally, these solutions often do not allow users to easily customise the inputs used, so that they can adapt them for different games. This project is a continuation of the work of C. Omtzigt and E. Dertien, and focuses on the creation of a “menu switching” system that allows users to bind all the standard inputs of a conventional controller to two buttons and a joystick. Additionally, this in- cludes the creation of tooling to allow users to quickly and easily rebind inputs, in order to allow them to play different games, or adapt play styles. |
