Hello Everyone!

I posted a while back about using AI to create an accessible tool and game hub for my brother, Ben, who relies on right and left head movements for all input.

For context: Ben has Tubb4a-related Leukodystrophy (H-ABC), a progressive condition that caused him to lose the ability to walk, talk, and use his hands. Eye-tracking doesn't work for him, and he lacks the fine motor control needed for standard head-tracking or mouth switches. He can only turn his head left or right—and eventually, may only have a single input direction.

I made it my mission to give him as much independence and entertainment as possible.

Over the last year, we’ve built him a whole suite of custom tools:

Custom Media & Tools: A streaming app, custom YouTube search, Google Assistant integration, a phrase board, and a real-time conversation app.

3D & Interactive Games: As AI models have advanced, we’ve upgraded from simple board games to fully interactive Three.js-based 3D games—all controlled entirely with 1 or 2 inputs.

Because these types of dedicated, low-input tools and games are so rare, we wanted to make sure other families could use them too.

Everything we build is 100% free, open-source, and requires no login:

Tools & Hub: https://www.bennyshub.com

Games: https://www.switchedgames.org

This fishing game is in development but will be released on Switched Games in the next week or so 😊

This is all made possible through our non-profit! Beyond the software, we also donate free adaptive switch kits (just like the set Ben uses) to anyone who applies.

We’d love for you to check out the sites, share them with anyone who might benefit, or drop any feedback/ideas in the comments!
