Design and implementation of augmented reality in apps for game assisted learning for children with ASD
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a wide range of developmental condition which are characterised by challenges in social abilities, verbal or non-verbal communication and repetitive motion or behaviour. This condition is acquired genetically and can be influenced by the surrounding environment. The...
