Expression Recognition Glasses for Autism By: Catalin Voss We are building a system on top of Google Glass to help people with ASD understand social cues and aid the treatment process of behavioral therapy. Using Glass’s sensors including head motion tracking, a microphone, and custom-made add-ons, such as an infrared camera for eye tracking, the software analyzes behavior of the wearer when interacting with other people. The system then gives social cues in real time, for example about facial expressions (i.e. “interested,” “frustrated,” etc. shown on Glass’s heads-up display) and records social responses to analyze them later in behavioral therapy, including the amount and type of eye contact made. This brings behavioral therapy out of the clinician’s office and into natural settings.
