Children who are blind often have poor muscle tone because they don't move around as much as other kids. The idea of this project is to get these kids moving as well as teaching them braille. So called "DDR Mats" are intended for playing the game "Dance Dance Revolution" on the PlayStation console. With an adapter, these mats can be connected to the USB port on a PC. Through the use of this pad, we intend to make a game for kids which is both fun and educational, getting them moving while teaching them Braille characters, and possibly spelling. The idea of braille twister is for the child to use their hands, feet, head, or whatever means possible to press the appropriate dots (up to 6) for the braille character. | ||||||||||||||
