LOLY 1.0: a proposed human-robot-game platform architecture for the engagement of children with autism in the learning process


Abstract:

Existing studies indicate the use of the Socially Assistive Robotic (SAR) system has enormous potential to advance therapeutic interventions in the learning process of children with Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Interactive technology, including the use of educational video games, can motivate ASD children to engage by adopting the technology as part of their communications tools. The complexity in the integration of various components of SAR linked to educational/serious games hinder the modularity and scalability of these robotic systems. This work proposes the design of an architecture for a SAR platform through the integration and reproduction of robot prototype, “Loly 1.0”. Loly 1.0 has mechanical movements, audio, and gestures connected to educational games in real-time. This will support the learning process of ASD children. The robotic platform architecture design is comprised of three main parts …
