2022 & 2023

Experiments in institutions that welcome autistic people.

First of all, in April 2022, we went to an institution in Bordeaux, le Nom Lieu, that specifically proposes digital activities for people with autism, in order to help them to get a job in this area. We knew then that digital technologies are often, in themselves, an affinity for autistic subjects. Alongside the institution’s clinical psychologists and IT specialists, we learned how we could offer such an activity as part of our experimental protocol, to enable an encounter with these subjects.

Then, between June 2022 and March 2023, we visited four medical-educational institutions (MIE), to collect clinical and scientific data using the eye-tracking method, which measures the visual attention of autistic subjects to their affinities. These experiments were carried out in several phases, detailed in the “Experimental protocol” tab.
