Abstract

Autism is a type of neurological disorder usually noticeable during the early stage of childhood, especially between one to three years and occurs in all social groups. The common problem experienced by the autism subjects includes lack in social interaction, poor communication skill, overexcited, unable to express their emotions. While these disorders are not fully curable, early detection can reduce the severity with proper therapy. Even though there are no appropriate medications and treatments, still we can improve the lifestyle of the autism subject through various supportive therapies. If this disorder is not detected at early stages, the severity rate may probably increase during the later stage.  Developing countries like India witness 0.2 percentage of the autism population in the overall community based on the information provided by the Rehabilitation Council of India. Express growth in the Information and Communication Technologies allows developing various assistive tools to enhance the lifestyle of the autism people. Fourth Generation Technologies like the Internet of Things, Wearable Devices, Cloud Computing, Big Data Analytics, and Artificial Intelligence, Mobile devices, Location-aware technology, Sensors, Augmented and Virtual Reality together provide a smart solution to all the sufferers. The objective of Interactive Learning Application Tool is used for Autism Screening and Assessment in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and extended to explore the assistive technologies available to serve the community. This will enhance the social interaction, learning and communication skills in children, a tool for analysing the aggressive level, a tool for caregivers and supportive and ranking tool for psychiatrist dealing with autism subject.
