June 14, 2016/ The DE-ENIGMA project, funded by Horizon 2020 (the European Union’s Framework Programme for Research and Innovation), aims to create and evaluate the effectiveness of a robot-based technology, developed to support autistic children in their learning. This technology will realise robust, context-sensitive (that is, user- and culture-specific), multimodal (including facial, bodily, vocal and verbal cues) and naturalistic human-robot interaction (HRI) to enhance the social imagination skills of children on the autism spectrum.
