A handheld gaming device or console for Luke who will be 9 years old at the completion of this project. He has normal or nearly normal cognitive and auditory abilities however he has visual impairments. He is severely near-sighted. He recognizes shadows, lights and color but reading a book requires him to place his face right on the page. He knows Braille.
