Kaspar the friendly robot teaches autistic children to enjoy a simple hug
I found an interesting story about some work they are doing in the UK with a robot teaching children to read emotions.
I had actually been researching another article i planned to write at the time and found this story which when read through actually gives some hope that maybe a bit more functionality can be put back into the lives of some of the most seriously affected autistic children.
From what i have seen the results appear to be amazing and is just another tool technology has given us to help our autistic children. Sometimes I think that autistic children (and adults) get far better support from the technology sector then from the health sector or the government.
