That's amazing! I've been looking for something like this for my son. He has right side hemiplegia and has little to no use of his right hand, but he loves gaming. He mostly plays one-handed keyboard and mouse on PC, but having the option to use a controller easier would open up some good options for him. I'll definitely be printing this for him ASAP.
Thank you all for your kind words 😊 I'm so happy to live in a time where technology can assist those people less fortunate or less able bodied. Everyone deserves to live their best life, and these kinds of devices can make that happen. 👍
You are a good person and a great father! My best wishes for u and ur son! Liked your comment hoping this guy can see the message and send u the blueprints
Looking at this gives hope for disabled gamers, my father suffers a stroke over 6 years ago and he used to enjoy playing some games in his spare time with me growing up. He lost his right side and trying to find controlers or extra devices that would be easy for him to use was a bit hard. Especially limiting since some other games were more action and fast paced reacting. Hoping to possible look further into this but this is great!
3d printers are cheap these days. Supposedly libraries let you print stuff on their 3d printers too, but ive never known anyone who has actually done it, so idk how it works. You could look into that though. Last black friday the ender 3 (3d printer) was only 100 bucks though. Its still pretty cheap. Honestly its almost worth it just to get into 3d printing. It doesnt require both sides of your body, and that way he could fine tune his controller adapter to suit his needs better. The ender 3 is a great entry level printer with tons of room for upgrading and tons of cheap parts available online. 3d printing is a great hobby for anyone imo. There are probably more youtube videos and parts available for the ender 3 than anything else since its so common. With about 60 bucks in chinese "clone" parts you could upgrade the ender 3 into a pretty serious 3d printer. He could make one handed versions of whatever he needed in whatever material he wanted it in. For this, any cheap stiff PLA filament is probably best but there are tons of materials out there. Nylon and polycarbonate (bulletproof glass) are super fun to print with IMO. If he learned to design though he could make things that would benefit others too. The people who actually need these products are often the best at designing them because they put their heart into it and are better at testing them in a realistic manner. Designing on a program like tinkercad is actually super easy. If you can use microsoft paint you can use tinkercad. A 5 minute youtube instruction video and an hour of tinkering with it and youll be a pro. Its very intuitive and doesnt have a steep learning curve like other programs like fusion360. You can load existing designs into tinkercad really easily and make your own tweaks to it. The only downside is that its browser based and sometimes changes can load slowly. Anyways, I apologize for how long this comment has dragged out, I just think 3d printing is a lot of fun and would be an especially useful skill for someone who needed custom tools/parts for one handed use.
World of Warships is slow-paced and it could be played (mouse & kb) one-handed. Probably has the oldest player demo out there, "the game for grown-ups".
I play with an Xbox controller with one hand because my right side is crippled and I just use a regular controller with no add-ons. I set the controller on my lap and use all 5 of my fingers and I find it very easy. Note: I use the right joystick with my thumb, and the left joystick with my palm.
this is exactly what 3d printing is for. innovation without having to pitch your ideas to a third party/financier who is only looking for profit, over function. bravo to you
I was going to bully this one by seeing linkedin post of someone printed same design since I am also disabled myself. But from the video I saw it is not like I have seen on photo that don't show the features well. Absolutely brilliant design and it adresses disabled person's needs well. You are really a one that deserves so much respect for doing something like that. I am speechless.

I am lucky and can play with both hands but this is wow. It should be promoted wherever possible. Thank you for doing this. I saw so many people playing with different disabilities and they are amazing, I have infinite respect for them.
After a motorcycle crash obliterated some bones in my right hand I could only play turn based games, and barely that. Things are normal now, but I have a major appreciation for this technology.
@@angryslaw9055 sorry that is the case, I was worried I would not be able to return to many of my hobbies but thankfully I had an excellent surgeon. Hope you are well and able to enjoy yourself as often as possible.
I don't have any mobility issues or anything but thanks for putting this model up for free. It's people like you that give me faith in humanity. I'm gonna print it anyway. :D
I love seeing innovation like this. I hope this makes getting into or staying involved in gaming seem a little less daunting for those who can’t use two hands.
I think they probably mostly play PC with custom inputs or use the Xbox accessability controller specifically made for gaming despite disabilities (you can even plug any input device in the contoller to add buttons or other inputs). Microsoft truly went the extra mile despite knowing it won't be profitable while Sony made PS4 Controllers incompatible with the PS5.
@@maddogsteve5507 I would suggest just getting a joystick with a wider button array, probably easier than making a custom attachment for a controller not designed for single hand use... That way you don't need to worry about wear and tear breaking it mid play.
@@aodigital9421 The controlled is essentially symmetrical so you can just mirror image the current design and it works just the same. It might only need some adjustments to the pads that touch the on the directional buttons but that is about it. A very reasonable concern but relatively trivial to fix.
Akaki Kuumeri, I just wanted you to know that at this years Game Awards, I was really hoping to see your creation and your name on the list for Accessibility Award. I was absolutely furious to see not only the award go to GoW purely for recency bias, but that you were not mentioned whatsoever. I assure you, you've done more to actually make games accessible to people than a colorblindness mode has. As far as I'm concerned, that award is yours.
I've been trying to design and print some solutions based on anothers designs I found thank other creators just to let a friend of mine play videogames... Due to nobody shared the files to facilitate print it, it was a really hard job. Thank you Akaki! You are an example for everybody, you have spent a lot of time designing and trying a solution and you just shared with everybody for free! Thank you so much!
Dude, you nailed it . even when I have all of my limbs pretty much intact. This is incredibly and will help a lot of enthusiasts out there. Again, thanks for this.
I can make the exception for circle being called 0. I've heard it called O (like Oh), Circle, now Zero. Hell, we used to call the Square button the Box button But hearing Triangle referred to as Delta took me for a loop.
@@johanlahti84 I grew my whole life calling that button the "X" /ɛksˈ/ button and only heard "cross" like a few years ago. Saying "X" still seems justified to me because I will refer to that shape as being an X elsewhere in life, more often than I would say cross in fact. Maybe it's an American English vs British English thing? I rarely say cross as a noun
I ran into this by accident on printables, but I'm amazed by the creativity, engineering and practicality of this design! Well done and what an epic way of utilizing a 3d printer.
This is amazing! Good on you for potentially bringing gaming to hundreds of thousands of people who otherwise can't! Also, now it's only a matter of time before Dark Souls speed runners start speed-running to characters at once - one with each hand!
This is so amazing! I can imagine a lot of kids, teens and adults that now will be able to play thanks to this! And even some that for some reason lost a limb and used to play games can return to playing! This is such an amazing thing to achieve! The amount of happiness it will give some people is just mesmerizing.
This has to be one of the coolest inventions I've seen in my 33 years on this earth! You sir are a genius and an inspiration! Outstanding job and keep them coming! I think you have WAAAAYYY more to give!
It is pretty damn awesome... But I'd wager you haven't seen many inventions in the past 33 years if this is one of the coolest. Like, just the controller itself that this is modifying was invented in the past 33 years. So you know... It's kind of cooler. And I can think of a few others off the top of my head that could compete. Just sayin'. A nice motivational comment, but kind of dry.
Guys come on lol. I mean like coolest invention as far as something for people woth disabilities goes. Of course there's all kinds of stuff out there that trump this by far but, for the disabled community this is outstanding. I didn't mean coolest invention in the world. That would be ridiculous. That's why I said ONE of the coolest inventions!
The ergonomics of this are really cool. I can't stop thinking about how it could be altered for different configurations. A little quality of life change would be to add a backstrap to stabilize your hand better. Could improve control of the R3 stick and lessen potential accidental movement and clicks of the L3 stick and buttons. Super awesome work man!
The controller could be made easier to use for harder games that require you to move the analog stick and press an icon button simultaneously. You could orient the icons vertically and push them further to the left. This would place them on the left-hand side of the controller and run down the side of the controller. This would allow you to use your index finger for icon selection while maintaining full control of the analog stick. Your middle and ring fingers can take on the responsibility of the left and right back buttons. You should still have plenty of support on the controller, considering a lot of the load is taken on by your lap.
For PC users, using this in combination with gyro could be very useful. Steams controller config is really good and I can see loads of the features they have helping disabled gamers.
@Finesse Kid Gaming Take my Down vote kid, Why even waste your time. Dude was trying to point the creator of the product towards a charity... He has no right to offer this dudes tech to some charity.
I thought you had bought this. I'm not that plugged into gaming culture. This is pretty amazing that you made this to aid yourself in using the controller. Really impressive. Human ingenuity never ceases to amaze me
Thought about becoming a Biomechanical Engineer, Playing games all day I thought just like this good too see someone hard at work making things better for humankind ☺️
as someone who just pushed past N5, "口" made me smile. This is an ingenious design, especially as it can be applied to any remote. I've gotten through enough gamepads in my time and I often wondered as a kid if there was anything for people who couldn't grab the controller with both hands. These "crossbars" remind me of trigger linkages in firearms modified to fire with the trigger in a different position. It's so cool that these can be printed. I will keep this in mind if I ever make a friend or have a family member who I want to play games with and cater to their differing needs. I bet as a project, these controllers will get even more intuitive to use and easy to produce.
This is genius! Really incredible! I was thinking about, with this attachment, implement something with pedals too. Adding some dinamism or something alike.
Inventions happens when there is a need. This is the work of a genius. We have robotics, we have passive hand mechanical parts we have lots of these engineering marvels because people break their own heads solving such hard problems. This doesn't deserve 3 millions of views. This deserves 100,000,000 views. Engineering, design and mechanics happens because there are people like you devising solutions. This is simply outstanding. You generalized a two hand controller into a one hand device. That is a complete breakthrough to the gaming industry. Outstanding job.
Игры, как и книги-искусство, а искусство должно быть доступно для всех... (Но не всё игры,GayShit Infarct или Dota2 например,от них лучше отказаться, если я оскорбил этим чьи-то чувства, знайте, я-эгоист и мне абсолютно плевать)
Doing Gods work good sir. Many children (and adults) will benefit from this. Video games is more than just fun, they can help a person with anxiety and depression. This is great work brother.
Really innovative, great work! It's awesome to see tech being designed for gamers with disabilities. I hope companies like Sony & Microsoft (etc) are watching cuz all gamers deserve to be able play games.
Man. People like you are hope for humanity. Thank you for this video. Thank you for this work. Thank you for your time. I know this is helping alot people who just love gaming bt lack behind due to physical condition. Respect for you. ✌️
Genius, PlayStation should buy this design and make it easier and streamlined. Most people don’t realize only having one hand completely changes everything ins and around your life
Greed. If they can't target a veeeery large audience they will not do it. Third party companies usually still have a heart and aren't focused on gaining money the fast and easy way, they will be the ones making this.
I remember when I was handicapped for 6 weeks, due to severing a tendon in a finger on my right hand. Playing with one hand is REALLY hard. This is such a great idea and I am sure it can help a lot of people out there!
That is amazing design. 3d printing has enabled so many advances from the community. I can't help but think this design could be similar in idea to a flight style joystick setup.
If I had one suggestion to help improve this. I believe the most common on those face buttons is X, and Square. Then circle, and least common is triangle in terms of what gets used the most. So, having x, with square to the left of it and circle to the right of it, and triangle to the right of circle would make the most sense. If you had a hack and slash game, it would be common to jump with x then quickly hit square for a jump attack for instance.
I wonder if the right analogue could be moved under the left grip and manipulated with the middle or ring finger. Might be a little more easier than moving the whole controller
@@ShadowGaro I'm sure you could edit it yourself in tinkercad. Im not even kidding, its crazy easy! I could honestly teach my 80+ year old grandma to do it. It's a browser based design software and its ridiculously easy to figure out how to use it. A 5 minute youtube video will teach you everything you need to know to design whatever you want. You can upload this existing design into tinkercad and easily make small tweaks to it yourself. You don't have to know jack about 3d printing or how to use design software in order to learn it. I was intimidated by the idea of learning 3d design until I tried tinkercad. It's not the best for professional use, but its friggen perfect for the average person who just wants to mess around and tinker. Its extremely intuitive. It all works pretty much how you would expect it to work just based on common sense. It's honestly about as easy as microsoft paint. You can print your designs at your local library if you dont have a printer. I highly recommend getting one on black friday or cyber monday. Even the mid tier 3d printers get down to about 100 bucks. They will often be close to half price on those days. It's honestly the most useful hobby in the world. Its a hobby that lets you make things for all of your other hobbies, or even become an inventor if you wanted too.
This is great. Gaming has been a big part of my life and got me through some very hard times so seeing something like this open the world for a whole community is amazing work. Thank you on behalf of those people
This simultaneously solves an important problem for people who only have one hand and solves another far less important problem for people are too lazy to use two hands. Thank you!
Los botones cuadrado, triángulo, círculo y cruz, deberían estar en el cuerno del mando para estar a tiro de los dedos medio y anular, así el pulgar queda libre para moverte con el stick. Lo de el uso de los botones R1, R2, L1, L2 está bien resuelto con el dedo índice, y la solución del analógico izquierdo también es funcional.
I think an improvement would be putting the "xo□^ buttons" underneath, on the rear side, not on front, so you can use both the arrows and the buttons at the same time, keep in mind that you would still have 2 free fingers on the back of the controller, which you can assign to the other buttons and press almost every single button at the same time if you want, with one hand
It depends on how you solve that, I mean, he has already solved pretty much all the job, something like the grip is minuscule in comparison. No ofense, I actually didn't think about the grip at the moment of my comment, but those things can be easily solved in my opinion if you think enough, not get over engineered because that's another problem, but once you have a better idea in the whole solution you can start simplifying things and combining to get it done right
This is actually pretty smart, somebody with an accessibility issue can go to a friend's house, put that on one of those controllers and not have to be left out ❤️
The modification I would make is to have the four symbol buttons (delta, zero, X, square) connect to the underside of the left grip, somehow, so you can use your thumb to move and press the face buttons at the same time
I don’t know where to start. My daughter got amputated about a year and a half ago. She loves games and able to manage . I watch your videos for advice and suggestions. I’m hoping as she progress she will be able to ask or do what you do. With work and home life it’s hard to take a minute and find that middle ground just for her. Ty for your videos and keeps my hopes up for her.
This is amazing I have been looking for something like this for my 9 year old son, he can only use one hand and loves to game, this would really help him...
I really love your genuine designs for one-handed players. You just have won a new subscriber and I'll be aware for future released videos. Keep it up!
Dude amazing! I'm paralysed in one arm due to a birth injury and struggled like crazy growing up playing PS1 & PS2, this would have been incredible to have had!!! Thank you for creating something that can bring such a huge help to people!
This is really awesome of you, and I'm so glad you can play! But the ingenuity and sharing is beautiful. Thank you so much for this and helping those who still dare to dream 💕
Well... I just replaced keyboard input with left hand controller + right hand mouse, because I injured myself on my left hand (cut) and didnt want to wait until I could fully use a keyboard again. I then stumbled upon this solution and honestly - this makes me think of ditching my whole keyboard for pc gaming. It it seems to be so much more comfortable and makes more sense to me, since playing with keyboard: try to hit W and 2, 3 at the same time. By using a controller on the left hand, i can bind keys the way I want them which makes absolutely more sense. Incredible solution, incredible engineering!
Cara, sou do Brazil, espero que consiga traduzir, isso é muito incrível, você é incrível, imagina a emoção das pessoas de poderem jogar e se entreter, finalizar jogos, parabéns cara, você merece que a Sony compre isso de você, muito mesmo!
Translation from a fellow Brazilian: "Man, I'm from Brazil, I hope you can get this translated. This is amazing, you're amazing. Just imagine the feeling from someone who can now play, enjoy and finish games! Congratulations, man, you deserve recognition from Sony to make this official. " Tamo junto! 🇧🇷
I wish something like this was invented when I was little. Have have erbs palsy breackial plexis from birth and do everything one handed. I'd definitely try it out but years of learning to adapt to the two hands controllers it would be a pain to relearn. Love what your doing man. I hope ppl who don't mind relearning or giving it a shot to open up new possibilities will find this awesome. Definitely needs to be widely advertised
dude this is so cool! man thank you for making this. so many people take having all your limbs for granted. this is a game changer for people with limitations.
hey awesome akaki. just seen you video today and i think this could be quite literally be a game changer for me! among other things i have a completely paralysed left arm after motorbike crash years ago. tried making mods myself using screws, lollypop stick and magnets...definitely with limited success. i was going to see if the charity you gave a link for would print one for me. but i think you deserve every £ for the effort you've put into this adaption. so i've ordered one from the etsy site you gave a link to. thankyou man, cant wait to get my hand on it. i have another puzzle with a thrustmaster hotas 4 you may be able to help with if your interested? regards, Andy
It's awesome that some people are thinking about things like these that, while may not initially be intended to solve this problem, are ultimately a godsend for people who need such solutions.
Thank you sir for making this controller adapter, I have cerebral palsy and I just ordered this product and I can’t wait to play games with my husband and friends thank you again ❤
I'm an ex royal engineer. The ethos drilled into us is improvise adapt and overcome. I'm very impressed and respect how you have done this so much. Sharing it on here will help and inspire others who might need this.
Yeah the designs 3d printer creators have made and posted online for free is straight amazing. I have been very interested in them for a while but they were too expensive might have to check the prices of them again now it's been a few years. Some of these things look really difficult to put together though
Grazie Akaki per aver realizzato il mio sogno di continuare a giocare, erano 25 anni che non usavo la play station e grazie a te lo faccio di nuovo. Il tuo pacco è arrivato e non ci sono stati problemi, Grazie di nuovo.
Wow, that's amazing! Only gripe I have is that the right trigger and R1 are somewhat linked, there might be a problem for some games. But that's just a little concern, overall it's amazing!
I dont see how adjusting the settings will get two buttons off eachother if the controller mod is the one linking them you can move jump from r1 to L1 but what about the action on L1 ? And l2? It has to go somewhere maybe you can get a different button combo on some games
@@aboutthegiggins4236 The mod only allows you to press one button at time because the R1 and R2 is a "switch". The games where that is a drawback is when you have to press both buttons at the same time to execute an action. Generally these tend to be fighting games and they usually allow you to change your layout.
Neat, although I suspect not being able to push the buttons at the same time as moving can be a problem for some games. Would a layout where you raise your fingers to push the buttons rather than using your thumb be feasible? That said, I suppose games where you could change keybinds to make better use of the shoulder buttons, or even switch movement to the right stick (in the case of playing lefty) would suffice.
I have a controller attachment it allowed me to use my back fingers to reassign buttons to the back so I didn’t have to displace my thumb as much, could do something similar could also make a specialized controller that allowed foot pedals this would allow some form of ability to since I can play completely with my feet already although not as good as my hands but I have played the entirety of Jak and daxter and borderlands with my 🦶
Very cool man!! I love when people like this make and design these products themselves because there's really nobody better to do it... I can see this being super optimized and built perfectly in a decade of trial and error, shoot, it looks pretty good now if I'm being honest!! Is that the way you've found most comfortable to use so far or just the most convenient for what you like to play??
The ingenuity behind this design is amazing!❤️ You can tell how much thought and care went into the design, doesn't take much to see just how much this has helped people. Great invention man, this actually really cool 😜🤘

Honestly I'd by this even though I have both hands just cause I'm lazy 🤣. Seriously though, as simple as this may seem I think it's genius.
Try playing a two player game with one controller in each hand.
After a motorcycle crash obliterated some bones in my right hand I could only play turn based games, and barely that. Things are normal now, but I have a major appreciation for this technology.

I love seeing innovation like this. I hope this makes getting into or staying involved in gaming seem a little less daunting for those who can’t use two hands.
I think they probably mostly play PC with custom inputs or use the Xbox accessability controller specifically made for gaming despite disabilities (you can even plug any input device in the contoller to add buttons or other inputs). Microsoft truly went the extra mile despite knowing it won't be profitable while Sony made PS4 Controllers incompatible with the PS5.
Im one those ppl . Cerebral palsy's a bitch
@@maddogsteve5507 I would suggest just getting a joystick with a wider button array, probably easier than making a custom attachment for a controller not designed for single hand use... That way you don't need to worry about wear and tear breaking it mid play.
I only have my right hand, how can this help me?! I was so hyped but 😤
@@aodigital9421 The controlled is essentially symmetrical so you can just mirror image the current design and it works just the same. It might only need some adjustments to the pads that touch the on the directional buttons but that is about it.

Akaki Kuumeri, I just wanted you to know that at this years Game Awards, I was really hoping to see your creation and your name on the list for Accessibility Award. I was absolutely furious to see not only the award go to GoW purely for recency bias, but that you were not mentioned whatsoever. I assure you, you've done more to actually make games accessible to people than a colorblindness mode has. As far as I'm concerned, that award is yours.
Incredibly innovative customization for one handed players, absolutely brilliant
it's an amazing idea for people that have issue with one of their hands, i truly love what the gaming community can create
This is incredible! Making games more accessible is so great! How dare you call those buttons anything but circle, square, x, triangle
I came for this.
Yeah Delta... wtf I heared many names but Delta xD
Yes.
@@AlryFireBlade It's a joke. c'mon, zero?!
Actually, Sony officially calls the X button the cross button for some strange reason 🤣
It will always be the X button to me
I've been trying to design and print some solutions based on anothers designs I found thank other creators just to let a friend of mine play videogames... Due to nobody shared the files to facilitate print it, it was a really hard job. Thank you Akaki! You are an example for everybody, you have spent a lot of time designing and trying a solution and you just shared with everybody for free! Thank you so much!
I’m always super impressed when people overcome their “weaknesses” and make it strength.. It’s always a beautiful sight to behold 💪
A strength?
Dude, you nailed it . even when I have all of my limbs pretty much intact. This is incredibly and will help a lot of enthusiasts out there.
Again, thanks for this.
I can make the exception for circle being called 0. I've heard it called O (like Oh), Circle, now Zero. Hell, we used to call the Square button the Box button
But hearing Triangle referred to as Delta took me for a loop.
yeah lmao
Yeah I had a mini brain seizure my self haha
and don't forget kuchi 口 japanese kanji meaning mouth for square
The obvious standard has to be consistent (shapes). Square, circle, cross, triangle. Everything else is just stupid.
@@johanlahti84 I grew my whole life calling that button the "X" /ɛksˈ/ button and only heard "cross" like a few years ago. Saying "X" still seems justified to me because I will refer to that shape as being an X elsewhere in life, more often than I would say cross in fact. Maybe it's an American English vs British English thing? I rarely say cross as a noun
I ran into this by accident on printables, but I'm amazed by the creativity, engineering and practicality of this design! Well done and what an epic way of utilizing a 3d printer.

This has to be one of the coolest inventions I've seen in my 33 years on this earth! You sir are a genius and an inspiration! Outstanding job and keep them coming! I think you have WAAAAYYY more to give!
It is pretty damn awesome... But I'd wager you haven't seen many inventions in the past 33 years if this is one of the coolest. Like, just the controller itself that this is modifying was invented in the past 33 years. So you know... It's kind of cooler. And I can think of a few others off the top of my head that could compete.
Just sayin'.
A nice motivational comment, but kind of dry.
@@Z4J3B4NT hilarious
The internet is the coolest invention during your 33 years on Earth. You wouldnt even know about his invention if it wasnt for the internet.
I agree that this is pretty damn cool, but coolest invention that you've seen in 33 years? What the hell have you even seen :')
Guys come on lol. I mean like coolest invention as far as something for people woth disabilities goes. Of course there's all kinds of stuff out there that trump this by far but, for the disabled community this is outstanding. I didn't mean coolest invention in the world. That would be ridiculous. That's why I said ONE of the coolest inventions!
The ergonomics of this are really cool. I can't stop thinking about how it could be altered for different configurations. A little quality of life change would be to add a backstrap to stabilize your hand better. Could improve control of the R3 stick and lessen potential accidental movement and clicks of the L3 stick and buttons. Super awesome work man!
The controller could be made easier to use for harder games that require you to move the analog stick and press an icon button simultaneously.
You could orient the icons vertically and push them further to the left. This would place them on the left-hand side of the controller and run down the side of the controller. This would allow you to use your index finger for icon selection while maintaining full control of the analog stick. Your middle and ring fingers can take on the responsibility of the left and right back buttons.
You should still have plenty of support on the controller, considering a lot of the load is taken on by your lap.
For PC users, using this in combination with gyro could be very useful. Steams controller config is really good and I can see loads of the features they have helping disabled gamers.

M8 idk what u on but he has 2 hands
To aid himself in playing with one hand, just because he wanted to, not because of handicap
He made it to help others, not himself, I think that's pretty admirable
People often forget that you don’t need to be disabled to help disabled people.
Thought about becoming a Biomechanical Engineer, Playing games all day I thought just like this good too see someone hard at work making things better for humankind ☺️
as someone who just pushed past N5, "口" made me smile. This is an ingenious design, especially as it can be applied to any remote. I've gotten through enough gamepads in my time and I often wondered as a kid if there was anything for people who couldn't grab the controller with both hands.
These "crossbars" remind me of trigger linkages in firearms modified to fire with the trigger in a different position. It's so cool that these can be printed. I will keep this in mind if I ever make a friend or have a family member who I want to play games with and cater to their differing needs. I bet as a project, these controllers will get even more intuitive to use and easy to produce.
As someone who speaks fluent Japanese this made me smile too :P
I didn’t realize he said 口, it sounded Russian lolll

This is genius! Really incredible! I was thinking about, with this attachment, implement something with pedals too. Adding some dinamism or something alike.
Making the pedals act as the top triggers would be perfect
Inventions happens when there is a need. This is the work of a genius. We have robotics, we have passive hand mechanical parts we have lots of these engineering marvels because people break their own heads solving such hard problems.

You deserve an award and recognition for your incredible invention 🙂
Great innovation!!! I am sure you are making a big difference in people’s lives.
If I had one suggestion to help improve this.
I believe the most common on those face buttons is X, and Square. Then circle, and least common is triangle in terms of what gets used the most. So, having x, with square to the left of it and circle to the right of it, and triangle to the right of circle would make the most sense.
If you had a hack and slash game, it would be common to jump with x then quickly hit square for a jump attack for instance.
I wonder if the right analogue could be moved under the left grip and manipulated with the middle or ring finger. Might be a little more easier than moving the whole controller
@@ShadowGaro I'm sure you could edit it yourself in tinkercad. Im not even kidding, its crazy easy! I could honestly teach my 80+ year old grandma to do it. It's a browser based design software and its ridiculously easy to figure out how to use it. A 5 minute youtube video will teach you everything you need to know to design whatever you want. You can upload this existing design into tinkercad and easily make small tweaks to it yourself. You don't have to know jack about 3d printing or how to use design software in order to learn it. I was intimidated by the idea of learning 3d design until I tried tinkercad. It's not the best for professional use, but its friggen perfect for the average person who just wants to mess around and tinker. Its extremely intuitive. It all works pretty much how you would expect it to work just based on common sense. It's honestly about as easy as microsoft paint. You can print your designs at your local library if you dont have a printer. I highly recommend getting one on black friday or cyber monday. Even the mid tier 3d printers get down to about 100 bucks. They will often be close to half price on those days. It's honestly the most useful hobby in the world. Its a hobby that lets you make things for all of your other hobbies, or even become an inventor if you wanted too.

This simultaneously solves an important problem for people who only have one hand and solves another far less important problem for people are too lazy to use two hands. Thank you!
Los botones cuadrado, triángulo, círculo y cruz, deberían estar en el cuerno del mando para estar a tiro de los dedos medio y anular, así el pulgar queda libre para moverte con el stick.
Lo de el uso de los botones R1, R2, L1, L2 está bien resuelto con el dedo índice, y la solución del analógico izquierdo también es funcional.
Claro, toda la razón, por como esta distribuido el mando es imposible moverse y presionar x, cuadrado, triángulo o circulo
This is honestly amazing. You did an excellent job with this.
WOWW YOU DON'T READ MY PROFILE PICTURE
I think an improvement would be putting the "xo□^ buttons" underneath, on the rear side, not on front, so you can use both the arrows and the buttons at the same time, keep in mind that you would still have 2 free fingers on the back of the controller, which you can assign to the other buttons and press almost every single button at the same time if you want, with one hand
That would be great and all but it would be difficult to get a good firm grasp on the controller
It depends on how you solve that, I mean, he has already solved pretty much all the job, something like the grip is minuscule in comparison. No ofense, I actually didn't think about the grip at the moment of my comment, but those things can be easily solved in my opinion if you think enough, not get over engineered because that's another problem, but once you have a better idea in the whole solution you can start simplifying things and combining to get it done right
@@winterfellwhall9934 ur right

Well... I just replaced keyboard input with left hand controller + right hand mouse, because I injured myself on my left hand (cut) and didnt want to wait until I could fully use a keyboard again. I then stumbled upon this solution and honestly - this makes me think of ditching my whole keyboard for pc gaming. It it seems to be so much more comfortable and makes more sense to me, since playing with keyboard: try to hit W and 2, 3 at the same time. By using a controller on the left hand, i can bind keys the way I want them which makes absolutely more sense. Incredible solution, incredible engineering!

Wow, that's amazing! Only gripe I have is that the right trigger and R1 are somewhat linked, there might be a problem for some games. But that's just a little concern, overall it's amazing!
You can more than likely remap the buttons in games where this would be a concern
@@jabbajawz Maybe, there are more than enough games where you're stuck with what the devs determine to be the best layout for the game.
@@Donnerwamp shouldn't be a problem as you can fully customise your controls in the Accessibility settings of the console.
I dont see how adjusting the settings will get two buttons off eachother if the controller mod is the one linking them you can move jump from r1 to L1 but what about the action on L1 ? And l2? It has to go somewhere maybe you can get a different button combo on some games
@@aboutthegiggins4236 The mod only allows you to press one button at time because the R1 and R2 is a "switch".
The games where that is a drawback is when you have to press both buttons at the same time to execute an action. Generally these tend to be fighting games and they usually allow you to change your layout.
Neat, although I suspect not being able to push the buttons at the same time as moving can be a problem for some games. Would a layout where you raise your fingers to push the buttons rather than using your thumb be feasible? That said, I suppose games where you could change keybinds to make better use of the shoulder buttons, or even switch movement to the right stick (in the case of playing lefty) would suffice.
I have a controller attachment it allowed me to use my back fingers to reassign buttons to the back so I didn’t have to displace my thumb as much, could do something similar could also make a specialized controller that allowed foot pedals this would allow some form of ability to since I can play completely with my feet already although not as good as my hands but I have played the entirety of Jak and daxter and borderlands with my 🦶
