  • Abstract
    In this paper, a visualized scenario learning system is developed for children with high-functioning autism. The system differs from the traditional communication aids available for autistic children in that, as well as assisting communication; this system assists autistic children in learning how to use objects or context-appropriate physical conduct in specific scenarios. Furthermore, this system employs a cloud server that enables parents of autistic children to upload and share their self-produced communication picture cards with other parents who have similar needs. Additionally, users of this software are not required to possess a specific level of computer knowledge; instead, they can simply select the download function in the software to obtain the learning scenarios shared by other parents.
