-- accessibility: special controllers for handicapped
 
 Both LEGO bricks and computer mice appear in the scientific
 literature as components, but not together.
 
-- LEGO has already published a robotics invention series called
-  Mindstorms, which also contains bricks with touch and light
-  sensors and a central unit to control them. Even the central unit
-  alone
-  is quite expensive and the existing sensors 
-  are not accurate
-  enough for controller use, we look them forward with interests.

+physical Lego-sized bricks are used as controllers for applications

 In [yee03peephole]_, one of the prototypes for
 using pda as a peephole to a larger canvas
 uses mice and fishing lines for triangulating 
-the position of the pda (which the user can move around): 
-the distance to a reference point
+the position of the pda (which the user can move around).
+The distance to a reference point
 was measured by having the fishing line go through a grid wheel
 in the mouse with small weigtht at the end maintaining tension.
