About

Vishav Jyoti is a leading researcher at the intersection of assistive technology, human-computer interaction (HCI), and neurodevelopmental disorders. Her work centers on designing innovative virtual reality (VR) and HCI-based platforms to improve social communication skills in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Jyoti’s major contribution lies in developing a VR-based joint attention (JA) task platform that enables children with ASD to practice picking up social cues—a foundational skill often impaired in autism, with cascading effects on language and social development. Her 2019 paper on this platform has garnered 39 citations, reflecting its influence in the field. In a complementary study (38 citations), she explored how HCI-based JA cues impact both functional and physiological measures, bridging behavioral and biometric assessments. This dual approach—combining immersive technology with objective physiological data—positions Jyoti at the forefront of evidence-based interventions for autism. Her work not only advances theoretical understanding of JA deficits but also provides practical, scalable tools for clinicians and educators, making her a pivotal figure in accessible, technology-driven therapeutic solutions.
