Gadget for gamers

Here on Ouch, we know from previous articles we have published on Switch gaming and accessible gaming that there are some keen disabled gaming folk out there. So you might be interested in knowing about an impressive new gadget that allows people with very limited movement, such as those with quadriplegia, access to computer games. It uses something called an Alternative Computer Control System - or ACCS, for short - which is placed into the player's mouth, and thus offers a high level of precision positioning and a low response time. Players control the game using their tongue, with the ability to store quite a number of commands. Ingenious, eh?
