Using Humanoïd Robots to Support Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder

摘要

In recent years, an increasing number of robots have found their way into American, Asian, and European classrooms.With names like Bee-Bot, Dash, Mindstorm, and Sphero, they offer exciting educational potential and have attracted growing attention from the education community.Recent studies have shown that these robots can serve as powerful educational tools, especially for students with learning disabilities.A robot subgroup, the anthropomorphic robot, appears poised to become the gold standard for educational use.The anticipated contributions of the anthropomorphic robot to development and learning provided the motivation for an exploratory research project.This paper focuses on the application of a robot called NAO to support children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD).
