Superpower Glass Project: A Mobile At-home Intervention for Children With Autism
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Autism Glass for Autism Spectrum Disorder. Completed, enrolled 74 participants.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this research is to study the effects of a novel artificial intelligence (AI) tool for automatic facial expression recognition that runs on Google Glass through an Android app to deliver social emotion cues to children with autism during social interactions. This novel device will use a camera, microphone, head motion tracker to analyze the behavior of the subject during interactions with other people. The system is designed to give participants non-interruptive social cues in real-time and will record social responses that can later be used to help aid behavioral therapy. It is hypothesized that the system's ability to provide continuous behavioral therapy during social interactions will enable faster gains in social skills.

Timeline
Interventions
The intervention uses the outward-facing camera on the google glasses to read facial expressions and provides social cues within the child's natural environment during usual social interaction and during games accessed via the smartphone application. Participants who receive the Google Glass intervention will be asked to use it for around 20 minutes 3 times a week with their parents or during ABA therapy.
