Wii The People

Really cool stuff to share today.

A group of CU Engineering students in a 2011 Fall Semester class taught by Associate Professor Melinda Piket-May worked on projects to design simple adaptive technologies that aid increased independence for some of the individuals Imagine! serves. In the next few weeks we’ll be sharing the projects.

Today, we’d like to show a project where students built and adaptive Wii board that allows individuals who use wheelchairs to play Wii games. Below is a video of the students demonstrating their project.

Now, check out this video of Imagine!’s Bob and Judy Charles SmartHome resident Donna using the adaptive Wii board at the home.

Thanks to Professor Piket-May and especially the students for their hard work.
