Social Engagement Interaction Games Between Children with Autism and Humanoid Robot NAO
Description
Children with autism are characterized by impairments in communication, social interaction and information processing. This work presents a module to encourage children with autism to improve their social and communication skills, through a specially designed game-based approach. The humanoid robot NAO is utilized to autonomously engage with a child. The proposed module suggests a multiple role for the robot which can act as a teacher, as a toy and as a peer, through a successive set of joint activities. Overall observation encourages the utilization of NAO in the rehabilitation of children with autism.
