Shrek™ Matching Game

Assistive Technology

An existing Shrek Matching Game was modified for blind and visually impaired children by utilizing game piece shapes for tactile recognition and audio clips to guide activities. Each game piece is assigned a unique resistor value soldered to a radio jack, which when disconnected cues up the sound clips announcing a match or instructing the child to try again or restart the game. Sound clips are stored in a Processing programming environment and accessed using the Minum library.
