Whack-a-Mole for the Visually Impaired Luv Kohli COMP290-039 February 24, 2004
Motivation • Lack of fun games for visually impaired children • Children need exercise for muscle tone • Educational – spatial reasoning
The Game • Furry woodland creatures appear at random to pester the player • Based on the location creature sounds are coming from, the player hits the creature back into its hole
Goals • Fun and enjoyable game • Physical activity • Inexpensive equipment
Audio • Several speakers (4?) in some spatial arrangement • FMOD or DirectSound?
Interface • Need to make sure children do not hurt themselves • Colored foam sponges • Camera looks at colors and determines what is covered up to see what is being hit
