Hello list,
I think someone was already talking about this subject, but I wanted to ask
more generally.
Before losing my sight, I played this game called Bridge commander. It was a
trek game and the cool thing about it was that you could hook up a mic headset
that came with the game. When you played, your character sat in the captains
chair and you could input commands to your crew thru two methods which was
either thru menus and keyboard, or thru voice commands. In that particular
game, you would give a menu heading, such as navigation or engineering. then
you would speak one of the options that was listed on that menu such as warp
five, or damage report etc and so forth. After a while, you knew the menu's so
well you didn't need to see what the options were, you could just give an order
and make it so.
It was very nifty.
Another game I played was called Socom navy seals I think. It was a ps 2 title
and it had the same kind of voice command. What was neat about socom was that
you controlled a team of four men and you could give commands like blue team,
recon or red team bang and clear.
I guess after all that, I was wondering how hard it would it be to implament
that kind of voice control into a game, and would it be possible within the
blind community?
It would be neat to be able to control some functions on an apache copter with
voice commands, or to give plays to a football quarterback or whatever the
situation would warrent.
thanks
