Towards Modeling of Interpersonal Proximity Using Head-Mounted Camera for Children with ASD

Published in Computers Helping People with Special Needs. ICCHP 2020, 2020

Summary

This study explored the modeling of interpersonal proximity using a head-mounted camera for children with autism spectrum disorder. The work focused on recording and analyzing interpersonal distance in everyday interaction contexts.

The study contributes to the Measuring and Autism Support lines by examining how wearable camera-based sensing can be used to describe spatial features of social interaction. It also connects assistive technology research with behavioral observation in real-world support settings.

Research line

  • Measuring: camera-based measurement of interpersonal proximity during interaction
  • Autism Support: observation of social interaction among children with autism spectrum disorder
  • Computer Vision: head-mounted sensing for modeling spatial relations in everyday contexts
