[games_access] eyebrow control at GGJ

[Thomas Westin]

Great, the webcam as well as the lever switches approach makes it cheap too, compared to similar stuff made with a brain-computer interface. 

(I made a BCI experiment with eyebrows together with Michael McIntosh in 2005, using the Cyberlink to recreate the Yoda-teaches-Luke-levitate-the-XWing in a 3D scene. Worked quite OK).

Best regards
Thomas

> A bit late with this, but seeing SpecialEffect's eyebrow control article (http://www.specialeffect.org.uk/specialeffect-news/browbeating) reminded me, the accessibility winner at Melbourne's goal game jam from January this year was eyebrow controlled rhythm/dance game. Same principle as eyebrow switches, but using post it notes and a webcam:
