A new study introduces RoboCA3T, a robot-inspired computer-assisted adaptive autism therapy that leverages children with autism’s affinity towards technology and robots. The therapy incorporates robot avatars and computer-assisted therapies through a web-based solution. Researchers noted improvements in joint attention and imitation skills after the intervention. This research aims to develop cost-effective, evidence-based treatments for children with autism spectrum disorder by prioritizing personalized content delivery and integrating AI-based automatic gaze and pose detection algorithms. The study was conducted by Sara Ali, PhD, from the National University of Sciences and Technology, Pakistan. The findings were published in the Journal of Computer Assisted Learning.
