I love all the projects they're incredible but what's more appealing to me is the eye gaze games that open a world of opportunities for people that have paralysis, a really great initiative

BubbleBusters seems like a project for a group which might otherwise go underserved. Especially if they're sick, missing out on that contact and social exposure is tough, and trying too alleviate that can only be a force for good.

 

[HYPERTOOTH]

For me its the eye gaze games. Sounds fun. And its great it can be tailored for different needs.

Eye gaze games!

Among SpecialEffect's projects, I like EyeMine. Eye tracking is a great tool for people with movement constraints. It was an expensive and difficult to implement tool before. But, I saw a few days earlier that some developers can also use this tool. It's amazing to finally see these kind of tools are available to all.

Honestly, all of the initiatives are pretty good but I think Eye Gaze makes gaming a lot more accessible especially for people with paralysis...

 

[Shifty-Powers90]

Bubblebusters seems like a really cool idea

BubbleBusters sounds really helpful for kids maintaining their social relationships and education. Being isolated for extended periods has to be tough so its nice to see something is being done like this.

Eye gaze games seems nice

The project from SpecialEffect's website that interests me the most is EyeGaze Games and EyeMine! The software that allows you to use your eyes for full access control in games is really cool!

 

[RomDivina]

Eye gaze games for me and I want to try it sometime. Thank you!

 

[LordXerxes]

They all appear to be very interesting projects. Love that the projects allow for inclusion of all for the love of gaming and/or computing.

 

[Duckyz]

Definitely StarGaze, allowing people with such limited mobility to be able to communicate and fully control a computer is incredible

 

[FIDAIN]

Eye Gaze Games and EyeMine, anyway all there projects are awesome and I think are able to help people​

 

[Kodiaq]

Eye gaze games are interesting.

 

[chatie]

Stargaze

 

[rhapso]

the eye gaze games! they interested me from the last time I saw them and still sound pretty fun

 

[KnowNothingMan]

They modified controllers are what I am interested in as I have a muscle disorder and would love to have more adaptive controllers for VR. I have died so many times in games because my fingers have let go of buttons while climbing. I have tried a usb foot pedal but that only works in very few games.

 

[Marinela]

Eye gaze for sure, a bunch of good immersive games can be played with this, even dialogue option games.

BubbleBusters is amazing. Being in the hospital under isolation can be so lonely sometimes. This is a great solution, and it's great that the kids in the school can interact with them as well!

BubbleBusters looks like a great project children need social contact for development and reducing loneliness.
