Smartphone app that detects earlier Autism unveiled
- A scientists have developed a new awesome smartphone application that tracks eye movement to determine in less than a minutes if a child is showing signs of autism spectrum disorder.
Autism spectrum disorder is a seriously development disorder that pairs the ability to communicate and interact and affected one two people's or person per 1,000 worldwide.
- The autism tracking software which can be installed in mobile phones tablets and computers provides a detection of a neurone genetic disorder in children as a young as 2years old than and can dramatically improve the benefits of treatment.
The disability is not suspected until a child enters school, the researchers studies said addition that the earlier the better our outcomes the diagnosed, better it's.
Well although its never too late to start the therapy, the researchers demonstrated that earlier we diagnoses the better our outcomes said by head assistant Doody Ralabate professional professor at SUNY Buffalo State College U.S
The study researchers found that the application tracks eye movement of a children looking at pictures of social scenes which will invokes the most dramatical difference in eye movements b/w children with and without ASD.
The eye tracking software pattern of children with ASD looking at pictures are scattered versus a more really focused pattern of children without ASD.
- Additional the application can also be used by parents at homes to accessible the risk of whether a child may have ASD allowing the families to seek the therapy sooner and improve the benefits of treatment.
Use of these applications takes up to 50 seconds which makes it less intrusive than other tests and valuable with children with short attentions spans, said by the head specialist Kun woo cho of the State University of Newyork at Buffalo US.
The Technology will also crosse's a cultural lines and languages is not a barrier.
The researchers studies, which includes @32 children ranging in an age of 2 to 10, the application showed an accuracy rating of 93.96% percentage, the researchers said.
Right away now its is a protype. We have to consider if other neurological conditions are include like attentions deficit deficiency deficit disorder ''ADD'' that will affect the outcomes, the Cho professional professor said.
- The studies was presented at the IEEE wireless health conference center in Maryland.
