Autism Simulator Employing Augmented Reality: A
- Prototype,” in in Proc. of the 4th IEEE International Conference on Development and Learning and on Epigenetic Robotics, 2014
"... In order to help people suffering from autism spectrum disorder (ASD), assistance systems have been developed with a focus on enabling ASD people to adapt to activities of daily living (e.g., augmentative and alternative communication systems [1]). However, if we reverse our viewpoint, we can develo ..."

1Using Augmented Reality to Elicit Pretend Play for Children with Autism
"... Abstract—Children with autism spectrum condition (ASC) suffer from deficits or developmental delays in symbolic thinking. In particular, they are often found lacking in pretend play during early childhood. Researchers believe that they encounter difficulty in generating and maintaining mental repres ..."

representation of pretense coupled with the immediate reality. We have developed an interactive system that explores the potential of Augmented Reality (AR) technology to visually conceptualize the representation of pretense within an open-ended play environment. Results from an empirical study involving
Autism Spectrum Disorders
"... This article outlines two compatible models for planning and implementing programs for students with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). The Ziggurat Model begins the process with an assessment of individual strengths and concerns related specifically to ASD and identifies interventions across five tie ..."

Toward socially assistive robotics for augmenting interventions for children with autism spectrum disorders
- In Intl. Symposium on Experimental Robotics
, 2008
"... Summary. Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) have communication deficits and difficulties with social interaction. A lack of social behavior can hamper therapeutic interventions and can diminish the ability to learn social skills. Robots have been shown to provoke proactive social behavior ..."

Virtual reality for the treatment of autism
- In G. Riva (Ed.), Virtual reality in neuro-psycho-physiology (pp. 81–86
, 1997
"... Abstract. Autism is a mental disorder which has received attention in several unrelated studies using virtual reality. One of the first attempts was to diagnose children with special needs at Tokyo University using a sandbox playing technique. Although operating the computer controls proved to be to ..."

to be too difficult for the individuals with autism in the Tokyo study, research at the University of Nottingham, UK, is successful in using VR as a learning aid for children with a variety of disorders including autism. Both centers used flat screen computer systems with virtual scenes. Another study which
INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY (R DIDDEN, SECTION EDITOR) Augmentative and Alternative Communication for Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder and Intellectual Disability
, 2014
"... Opinion Statement Many individuals with autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disability are candidates for augmen-tative and alternative communication (AAC). We review two current trends in AAC research involving persons with ASD and intellectual disability. The first trend is the use of smartp ..."

Promoting Independence among Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders
"... Autism spectrum disorders are characterized by deficits in social and cognitive functioning. Many individuals with autism have poor executive functioning which inhibits their ability to initiate a task, to remain attentive, and to organize and sequence information. Poor executive functioning can als ..."

An Exploratory SocialEmotional Prosthetic for Autism Spectrum Disorders
- in Proceedings of the International Workshop on Wearable and Implantable Body Sensor Networks, BSN
, 2006
"... We describe a novel wearable device that perceives and reports on social-emotional information in realtime human interaction. Using a wearable camera and other sensors, combined with machine perception algorithms, the system records and analyzes the facial expressions and head movements of the perso ..."
