Hi Suzanne. Firstly, You could always connect the laptop to a big TV screen using the external VGA connector, (if it still has one) or maybe the HDMI port. Secondly, *Commercial Interest declared* My private company, LEPMIS has a range of controls for PlayStation and XBox, including head controls for those with no arms or hands, and switches to suit those with minimal strength or ROM.

[mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Suzanne Squire Sent: 08 December 2016 09:12 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: new member and PS4 Sorry I have just realised I could put a message straight on the website, sorry to email everyone on the list ! :) Good morning all. I would like to introduce myself. I am a new team member with Alan Woodcocks team in North Thames Regional environmental control servcice. I have many years under my belt as an OT but very little in terms of technology so this is a new and very exciting time in my career. However I do have many questions so if I ask obvious questions I apologise now. May I gain some advice regarding a young client I have with muscular dystrophy, apart from his first and second digit on his right hand he has no hand function, he is able to move his head well. This young man would like to use his playstation 4 to play FIFA. I talked with him regarding eye gaze software for his laptop if he joined the playstation store on line and then downloaded games to his lap top but very unsure how much control he could have with his eyes for football. Howver he was not that keen and wants to play on his Large TV screen (who can blame him) So in terms of how this ould be possible has anyone had any ideas etc. I am going to look up special effects website that Alan has suggested but any help would be much appreciated.
