Enhancing Gaming Experience for the Disabled with Innovative Body Sensing Interface

This project aims to revolutionize video gaming by creating a more immersive experience, especially for individuals with disabilities. We will replace the joystick functionality of Xbox controllers with a body sensing interface, allowing players to control gameplay through head and body movements. Users will benefit from a multi-screen setup due to a VGA splitter that partitions Xbox video outputs for better multiplayer interaction. Key components include a headset with sensors for rotation and inclination, and a video interface that uses edge detection to track player movements accurately.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Enhanced Gaming and Pointing 6.111 Final Project David Dryjanski Andrew Pinkham April 22, 2005

  2. Overview • Main Idea: Convert Video gaming into a more virtual experience, and allow the disabled to more easily use their computer • Project will replace the existing joystick functionality of the Xbox controller with a physical body sensing interface. • 5 degrees of control: 3 for head movement and 2 for body movement. • The composite xbox video will be partitioned into 4 different VGA outputs to be displayed on separate screens, allowing for a better multiplayer experience.
