Abstract :
This paper provides the Framework Methodology of the Autism Children -Vibratory Haptic Interface (AC-VHI) conducted on the mild autism children who have impairment in social interaction. This paper has exclusively explored problems faced by Malaysian autistic children in a National Autism Society at Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It also has been conducted at two locations: the classroom and the court of the National Autism Society in Malaysia (NASOM), Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The paper has sampled 20 children with mild autism, who have impairment in social interaction, based on the records of the National Autism Society of Malaysia. The sample collection method followed the purposive sampling approach, which is a form of non-probability sampling that allowed us to choose a case, because it illustrates some features or processes, in which we are interested. The framework included three main three process which are Process one, process Two and Process Three. This´s three processes of the framework was suitable with the area of research and could to accomplish objectives of this research in helping the autism children to interact and communicate effectively with their families, friends and the broad community.
