Xogo VR is an innovative accessible gaming platform designed to remove traditional barriers to VR/AR interaction for players with disabilities. Unlike standard VR games that rely on predefined controllers, Xogo VR dynamically adapts to the player's available input methods upon launch. The system detects and customizes control schemes for various input devices—including single-button switches, alternative joysticks, or other assistive technology—allowing for fully personalized and intuitive gameplay. Beyond accessibility, Xogo VR integrates an Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) system that enables users to efficiently generate sentences with just a few taps. It offers predefined buttons for everyday communication and supports customization or imports for more advanced options. AI-driven suggestions and auto-complete functionality further streamline the user’s ability to express themselves quickly and conveniently. Players can send real-time messages to parents or caregivers through a companion app. This same companion app lets parents and caregivers interact with the game using their mobile devices, providing assistance or playing alongside the user, while also monitoring progress and engagement. This feature enhances the overall gaming experience by providing a seamless communication channel and active support network.
