How to... Use Switch Interfaces with Console and PC
We use a lot of accessibility switches. They're invaluable in harnessing all kinds of body movements and turning them into console/keyboard button presses or joystick movements.
In this video Frankie, one of SpecialEffect's Occupational Therapists, shows just some of the interfaces available (as of September 2017) that we use to link our accessibility switches to a console or a PC.
SpecialEffect is a UK charity that helps people with physical disabilities to benefit from video games.
