Development of a Virtual Reality Assistive Tool for Individual with Autism Spectrum Disorder

A recent report indicates that 1 in 59 children worldwide has autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Virtual Reality (VR) assistive tool technologies are becoming conventional therapies for strengthening of behaviour and learning of the individual with ASD. The main issues with the initial VR assistive too...
