Periborg
Eiji Morikawa is one twisted individual. He’s a 28 year old electrical engineer that has designed a range of, well, stuff, for gamers. He calls the range Periborg – part peripheral, part cyborg. They are designed to make the gamer’s life easier.
Tim Rogers at Wired writes more about Morikawa and the devices, which can actually be bought in Japan. The most bizarre one is Shock-C: a utensil holder that is worn on two fingers and can be fitted with chopsticks or a fork and spoon. The idea is that the thumb is free to work the controller, which Morikawa claims “never gets greasy”.
