iPad App for Cerebral Palsy Patients

Video Details: In looking for a project to tackle as part of a software-engineering class, a team of computer science and engineering students posed the question: What can we do to help people whose impaired motor movements make it difficult to manipulate touch-sensitive screens or press the small buttons on mobile keyboards? A University of Michigan team of engineering students and rehabilitation engineers is building an app to help people whose impaired motor movements make it hard to manipulate touch-sensitive screens or press the small buttons on iPads and other mobile devices. The student team expects to release the app on the Apple App Store within the next few weeks. Even after its release, they'll continue working on the app, but they hope that people will download it, as is, and give them feedback that will help them make improvements. They'll announce the release as soon as it happens.More information on the iPad App for Cerebral Palsy Patients is available at the website http://tinyurl.com/3xokf85
