"There’s a lot of things we take for granted in life: from our vision and hearing, to a roof over our heads, to a smattering of Steam sales ensuring that we never, ever don’t have anything to play. But one thing most of us tend to forget is not everyone has 10 working fingers to engage in our favourite pastime with. That’s where the recently launched Kickstarter for Quadstick comes in. It’s a controller that lets quadriplegic people emulate all the functions of a gamepad, mouse and keyboard on PC, PS3 and Android devices.How, you ask? It’s rather complicated, but it involves a device comprised of a joystick, four sip & puff sensors, a lip position sensor, and a push switch. Data collected through this contraption is then converted into input via a USB or Bluetooth connection."
