I added a page where you can use your own Gemini Storybook generated story with switch and eyegaze users. TTS reading is far from perfect for now, it's a tougher feature to fiddle with. I'm thinking of adding options for a musical ambiance. Feedback welcomed! adaptatech.org/gaming/story...

The adafruit TRRS trinkey is a device that democratizes DIYing your computer switch access. I made a tutorial, using circuitpython instead of the typically used arduino, so that the only skill needed to make your own device is dragging and dropping files. See adaptatech.org/documentatio...

Using trackymouse.js, I experimented a bit with making simple games that can be controlled with head movement. It works surprisingly well and is not too hard to implement. If there is some interest I could publish a demo on my website.

Make play accessible this holiday season. We're excited to launch #HackingForTheHolidays, and we're looking to raise $200,000, donate 2,000 toys and switches to families and clinicians across Canada, and engage 2,000 volunteers. Donate today and give the gift of play: buff.ly/II2aXkV

Using the Adafruit TRRS Trinkey, you can make your own switch access device for computers, without any programming, soldering, or 3D printing. If you can drag and drop files, you can make your own switch access for 10 dollars with my tutorial, ready in a week or two. #SpecialEducation #AssistiveTech
