Effects of Augmented Reality Game-based Training on Social Communication of Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder

The study aims to determine the effects augmented reality game-based training on social communication of children with autism spectrum disorder.

Augmented Reality allows children to see a representation of imaginary content and pretend play overlaid on the real-world environment. Today, technology can be a safe and motivating way of engaging children with autism in social interaction activities. Current research in therapeutic technology for autism is aimed toward improving behavior and psychomotor activities that impact social communication.
