Abstract :
This paper describes an eye-tracking analysis of usability studies on applications designed for children with autism. The design implications for people with autism are discussed. We report on insights from our experience using eye tracking to evaluate the applications of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). We present the main challenges of using eye tracking with tablets for children with ASD.
