Quadriplegic Lou Gehrig’s Patient Creates Smartphone App

A 51 year old quadriplegic Lou Gehrig’s patient overcomes his disability and creates a smartphone app (Cube Cyclops).

Apr. 4, 2013 - BRENTWOOD, Tenn. -- Cube Cyclops was created by Todd Kinnane in the fall of 2012. Mr. Kinnane has ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease) and is a quadriplegic. Mr. Kinnane used a head mouse to create the puzzle game which required him to laboriously swing his head back-and-forth in order to type. Mr. Kinnane created Cube Cyclops to increase awareness of ALS and to offset the enormous cost of his care. 

Mr. Kinnane originally designed the game in an Excel worksheet using the programming language Visual Basic for Microsoft applications. When Mr. Kinnane decided to convert the game into a smartphone app he acquired the services of DbyDX to assist him. The smartphone app is availabl e at the App Store for the iphone and at Google Play for android phones (.99 cents). The website for the game is http://www.cubecyclops.com . 

Cube Cyclops the company is based in Nashville, Tennessee and is committed to increasing awareness of ALS.
