The Autism Solutions bot helps autistic kids
With one out of every 64 American children being affected by Autism Spectrum Disorder, it's a huge problem worth working on. Shriya Sreeju (aged 6) agrees. She presented the Pepper Robot-powered Autism Solutions robot to the TechCrunch Disrupt Hackathon audience today. "Pepper shows you a flash card on its screen," Shriya explains. "If the kid shows the right card, they get a high five and the robot will say good job! When the kid gets two high fives, Pepper will do a happy dance and show a smiley on screen, to help show emotion."
