I got a chance to see Kathrin present on this last month at the ASSETS conference (the project actually won the Best Student Paper Award), and it blew everyone's minds. She and I both participated in the Doctoral Consortium, so we had a chance to chat about game accessibility 1:1 quite a bit as well. The project originally evolved out of an interest in getting elderly wheelchair users more involved in social and exergames, but as you can see in the two videos, it has massive potential for integration with games of any sort. Can't wait to see where this tech goes next! *-- -- -- -- --John R.
