Hi,
interesting Email from Games for Health (summary)
from Kevin Colburn.

www.xrgamekit.com <http://www.xrgamekit.com/>  
The XRGameKit works with most exercise bikes. It enables the user to
interact with hundreds of off-the-shelf games using their arms or feet to
power the avatar, and their head to steer with.
It also works with treadmills and most ellipticals.

 
A paraplegic or partial quadriplegic patient can pedal an arm bike (like the
MagneTrainer) with their arms www.magnetrainer.com
<http://www.magnetrainer.com/> . 
They then steer with their head. Driving games and flight simulators are
great applications for this. 

 

The XRGameKit works with many different types of games. Here's a link for
examples. http://www.xrgamekit.com/Games.php 

 
Be sure to checkout the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8oTHB54pU5c to
see how the XRGameKit can control the driving and racing game 'Fuel'. Fuel
has over 100,000 miles of roads and trails to explore.

Best regards,
Sandra
