The people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have different characteristics in perceiving sensory stimuli and organizing appropriate responses, as in many other areas. They have limitations in organizational skills. The things that they need to cope with turn into a significant challenge, such as the situations which need to manage the task and time while interpreting sensory information. That’s why most of the people with ASD have difficulties in sustaining their daily lives independently. However, it is possible to improve the life expectancy of people with ASD by providing proper services and products that assist them in giving control of their lives by taking into account their sensory preferences. They must have access to personalized services/products so that they can continue their everyday life as an independent, individual adult. The main purpose of the present study is to design a unique assistance service and product in managing daily tasks by helping them overcome anxiety and stress originated by routine breakdowns and unfamiliar situations, while improving their autonomy during the day. It will be a task management device for daily tasks in order to facilitate in dealing with them with digitilazed physical interaction.
Le persone con disturbo dello spettro autistico (ASD) hanno caratteristiche diverse nella percezione degli stimoli sensoriali e nell'organizzazione di risposte appropriate, come in molte altre aree. Hanno limiti nelle capacità organizzative. Le cose che devono affrontare si trasformano in una sfida significativa, come le situazioni che devono gestire il compito e il tempo nell'interpretazione delle informazioni sensoriali. Ecco perché la maggior parte delle persone con ASD ha difficoltà a sostenere la propria vita quotidiana in modo indipendente. Tuttavia, è possibile migliorare l'aspettativa di vita delle persone con ASD fornendo servizi e prodotti adeguati che li assistano nel dare il controllo della propria vita tenendo conto delle loro preferenze sensoriali. Devono avere accesso a servizi / prodotti personalizzati in modo da poter continuare la loro vita quotidiana da adulti indipendenti e individuali. Lo scopo principale del presente studio è di progettare un servizio e un prodotto di assistenza unici nella gestione delle attività quotidiane aiutandoli a superare l'ansia e lo stress originati da guasti sistematici e situazioni non familiari, migliorando al contempo la loro autonomia durante il giorno. Sarà un dispositivo di gestione delle attività quotidiane al fine di facilitare nel gestirle con l'interazione fisica digitale.

Abstract
The people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have different characteristics in perceiving sensory stimuli and organizing appropriate responses, as in many other areas. They have limitations in organizational skills. The things that they need to cope with turn into a significant challenge, such as the situations which need to manage the task and time while interpreting sensory information. That’s why most of the people with ASD have difficulties in sustaining their daily lives independently. However, it is possible to improve the life expectancy of people with ASD by providing proper services and products that assist them in giving control of their lives by taking into account their sensory preferences. They must have access to personalized services/products so that they can continue their everyday life as an independent, individual adult. The main purpose of the present study is to design a unique assistance service and product in managing daily tasks by helping them overcome anxiety and stress originated by routine breakdowns and unfamiliar situations, while improving their autonomy during the day. It will be a task management device for daily tasks in order to facilitate in dealing with them with digitilazed physical interaction.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
