Project RoboPlus
Social robots in support of children with autism

Challenge
Supporting children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a challenge for any mentor. Academic studies show promising results in the use of social robots, but this is often technology driven and not based on practice.
Solution
In this project, knowledge and experience is to be built up in six testing grounds about how mentors can use social robots to support individual guidance processes and group activities.
Role of the HealthFactory
The HealthFactory supports communication and dissemination activities, such as the organisation of the seminar 'Social Robots in Healthcare Practice' in eHealthweek 2018
Initiator
This 'Raak-Publiek' project is an initiative of the Robotics Research Group of the University of Applied Sciences Hogeschool Windesheim Flevoland
