Pictogram Room

The pictogram room is a project that intends to create an educational tool based on augmented reality technologies. Among other things, the educational objectives are related to understanding the pictograms, developing the concept of oneself, the corporal diagram, imitation and understanding cause-effect relations of a social nature.Although the intermediate objectives of the project involve creating a high-cost system with the aim of valuing the different technological possibilities, the final objective is to create a new tool based on low-cost devices (hardware) with the aim of making it accessible to everyone. In accordance with the planning of the project, this objective will be reached in the year 2010.

AZAHAR: Tic-tac: watches for people with autism and/or learning difficulties

Within the framework of the AZAHAR project, which is aimed at creating applications for mobile telephones for people with autism, the first result is the TIC-TAC tool.

TIC-TAC has been designed to make it easier to understand and manage the concept of time for people with autism and/or learning difficulties, who may have associated perception and/or sensory problems. It comprises an alternative system of representing time, which has been considered for use:

• in waiting situations
• to indicate available leisure time
• to indicate the time that we have to carry out a task
• in situations that can produce sensory overload
• in other situations that are thought to be useful
