Abstract

Recent years have witnessed an alarming rise in the number of children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). These children have special needs and hence require different kind of learning mechanisms as well as access to technological interventions that offer extra means of building links for an individual. This heightened focus includes services and interventions combined with technological advances that redefine how support and instruction can be provided. This chapter presents an overview of emerging technology tools such as Virtual Environment (VE)/Collaborative Virtual Environment (CVE), therapeutic robots, language tools, multimedia handheld devices, floor/table top projectors along with different interventions that have been used to enhance different learning skills in children with ASD.
