Here’s a really groovy design concept for those with disabilities. Designer Ryan Parry (together with GlobiGames Ltd) has come up with a new headset design that would allow users to navigate through menus, answer or end calls, and much more… All by moving one’s head front-to-back and side-to-side. The concept is dubbed ‘Tilt’, and I’ve got to give it two big thumbs up.

The band would hold the headset in place with magnets. When removed from the wristband, the unit would automatically detect this and turn itself on. Cool.

Well done, Ryan. More images below.
