About Me

See that picture on the left? That's me! I'm Eitan, a graduate student at the Singapore-MIT GAMBIT game lab. I make educational and accessible video games, as the website subtitle would imply. My research focus at MIT is on intuitive and meaningful video game user interfaces.

I recently finished work on the prototype of AudiOdyssey, a innovative new rhythm game designed for a mainstream audience, yet completely accessible to the visually impaired. The free download is available here and is really fun - it even uses a wiimote as a controller on a PC!

Before coming to MIT I worked at the Federation of American Scientists on Immune Attack, an educational video game that teaches immunology to high school students in a fun and engaging way. Check out the game, it's awesome!

For more information about my work take a look at some of my current projects.
