Psycle: Cognitive growth support for Autistic Children

Comment

Inspiration

Psycle draws its inspiration from the profound impact technology can have on improving the lives of autistic children and their caregivers. The inspiration stems from recognizing the unique challenges faced by individuals on the autism spectrum and the crucial role that early intervention and support play in their development journey.

What it does

Cognitive Retraining through Gamification: Engaging games and activities focus on critical thinking, focus, and emotional stability enhancement. Autism Detection Model: Identifies potential users who could benefit from early intervention and support. Child Chatbot: Provides friendly and supportive interaction, guiding children through activities and offering encouragement. Caretaker Chatbot: Offers assistance and resources to parents or caregivers, addressing their concerns and providing guidance. Quizzing Portal with Real-time Feedback: Allows children to participate in quizzes for cognitive skill improvement, with real-time feedback and personalized recommendations. Emotion and Focus Detection: Utilizes camera and microphone functionalities to detect emotional states and focus levels during activities.
