14-year-old New Hampshire gamer built 3D-printed VR controller after he couldn't grip a standard one

Scott began the project as a school assignment and asked his uncle, Brandyn Lewis, a mechanical engineer, to help him. For 14-year-old Scott Merrow of Auburn, New Hampshire, playing video games has always meant finding his own way to use a standard controller. A gamer who enjoys playing virtual reality games with his friends, Scott has a condition called symbrachydactyly, in which fingers may be underdeveloped or may not develop at all, according to Boston Children's Hospital.According to Wmur, Scott refers to his left hand as his 'little hand'. While playing with a traditional game controller, he developed his own way of using it. He would keep the controller in his lap and divide its controls between his left and right hands."And I'd basically just section the controller off, so half would be my little hand; the other half would be my right hand that really just adapted to it," Scott says. "I can't explain how it works, because I grew up with it. I don't know what it's like to have two hands," he adds.That approach worked for a traditional controller, but virtual reality gaming created a different problem. VR systems use a headset and controllers designed to be held in each hand....
