pi raspberry Zero game contest blind ORAL audio sound microphone speaker toy fun Nintendo xbox playstation

This project is submitted for

  • Adafruit Pi Zero Contest

This project was created on 02/06/2016 and last updated 5 years ago.

Description

My idea is to use the $5 Pi Zero as the brain for a game system for the visually impaired. Interaction would rely solely on sound and touch.

The system would be very inexpensive because it requires no expensive screens! :-)
Just a $5 Pi Zero, a speaker, a few pushbuttons, and possibly a microphone.

I have a few game ideas in mind. I will share in build log of this project as those ideas become clearer in my head.

Wow, this is such an innovative and inclusive idea! Using the $5 Pi Zero to create a game system based entirely on sound and touch opens up gaming for the visually impaired in such a meaningful way. Can't wait to see how your game ideas evolve—this could redefine accessible gaming!
