The Light Touch Switch is a cost-effective 3D printable accessibility switch based on an initial design by Kevin Cross. It's an assistive device used by people with physical disabilities to control electronics (e.g. phones, computers, adapted toys,  game controls, etc.).This particular switch is well-suited for use by a finger. It can be plugged into any standard 3.5 mm AT interface and even the Xbox Adaptive Controller.  Print SettingsInfill: 20%Resolution: 0.2mmSupports: Yes (only for the switch cap)Rafts: No Bill of MaterialsTo assemble the switch, you will need:1 – 3D Printed Switch Base1 – 3D Printed Switch Cap1 – 3D Printed Hinge Pin1 – 3.5 mm mono cable1 – 12 mm tactile switch~1/3 – stick of hot glue1 – 3D Printed 12 mm switch soldering jig (Optional) Build TutorialPrinted assembly manual can be found in the Files tab. Additional Documentationhttps://makersmakingchange.com/project/light-touch-switch/ About Makers Making ChangeMakers Making Change is an initiative of the Neil Squire Society, a Canadian non-profit that empowers people with disabilities through technology.We leverage the capacity of community based Makers, Disability Professionals and Volunteers to develop and deliver affordable Open Source Assistive Technologies.🔸 Volunteer to print a device🔸 Tackle a design challenge🔸 Submit an assistive device idea🔸 Follow us on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter
