This book provides an in-depth review of the historical and
state-of-the-art use of technology by and for individuals with
autism. The design, development, deployment, and evaluation of
interactive technologies for use by and with individuals with
autism have been rapidly increasing over the last few decades.
There is great promise for the use of these technologies to enrich
lives, improve the experience of interventions, help with learning,
facilitate communication, support data collection, and promote
understanding. Emerging technologies in this area also have the
potential to enhance assessment and diagnosis of autism, to
understand the nature and lived experience of autism, and to help
researchers conduct basic and applied research. The intention of
this book is to give readers a comprehensive background for
understanding what work has already been completed and its impact
as well as what promises and challenges lie ahead. A large majority
of existing technologies have been designed for autistic children,
there is increased interest in technology's intersection with the
lived experiences of autistic adults. By providing a classification
scheme and general review, this book can help technology designers,
researchers, autistic people, and their advocates better understand
how technologies have been successful or unsuccessful, what
problems remain open, and where innovations can further address
challenges and opportunities for individuals with autism and the
variety of stakeholders connected to them.
