Hack a Stuffed Animal | Stephen Thomas |
In this project a student would design and document how to hack a stuffed animal to be used as an input device similar to a joystick or arrow and a few other keys to allow a nonverbal child to use their favorite stuffed animal as an input device.

PECS for Non-Verbal Communication | Stephen Thomas |

Etoys touch UI | Rita Freudenberg |
Bert Freudenberg has done some initial work adapting the Squeak Virtual Machine and Morphic to support multitouch events [1]. As he stated, the UI would need to be improved (or maybe even redesigned from scratch) before we can deliver this to kids. In this project we don't propose the complete redesign of Etoys UI (which we think it would take more than 3 months to complete) but at least a new implementation of Morphic interaction that takes into account multitouch gestures.
