Augmented Reality Applications for Special Kids

As there is no medical test to detect some of the particular needs, there is much work to be done when it comes to caring for special children who have neuro-developmental disorders. Learning difficulties and poor social skills are special needs children's main problems. They are unable to converse like people in the physical world do. They can learn skills more effectively by using an augmented reality or augmented world to build these skills. It lessens the dread of close relationships. They employ virtual and augmented reality to hone their talents and as a platform for phobia therapy. Through the stimulation of augmented reality, these technologies provide children with straightforward techniques that help them become aware of and accepting of the real physical world. The understanding of concepts is enhanced when Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) are used in the teaching of special needs children. The stimulation of the real world and its objects, as opposed to learning from outdated or domestic teaching methods, can improve the experience of learning, understanding, and applying the knowledge or discipline gained from a process in the real world without the fear of being incorrect and by reducing the margin for error. This results in a child to have a regular life and a good education. In this work we have created an application using unity, vuforia, C#, android studio. Audio implemented in this app helps the children to learn the scenarios in English and Kannada. This app helps the parents and care taker to teach social behaviour to special children.
