I'm a video game developer by day and love playing with esoteric peripherals. I modded a Nintendo Power Glove, originally released in 1989 for the NES. I replaced the ultrasonic sensors with an accelerometer, wired connection with Bluetooth, and original microncontroller with an Arduino.

    Thanks! It's a fantastic job, I love almost every day of it. Stressful as hell occasionally, but fantastically rewarding.

    Not that I normally answer unsolicited questions about my sexual orientation, but no.
