Clinical Trial Summary

People with autistic spectrum disorder frequently present impaired motricity, or at least different motricity from neurotypical subjects (walking; postural balance; fine motor skills; motor control, etc.). Motor impairment can have impact on the performance and learning of simple tasks (bathing, dressing, writing, using tools, etc.), especially in children and teenagers.

These last years, new therapeutics such as Virtual, Augmented and Mixed Reality technologies have developed. Their therapeutic interest has been identified in various pathologies like phobia. However, their influence on motor skills has been little studied. The first results obtained with disabled adults described a significant increase in walking speed after a 3-month Mixed Reality training.

Description:

The aim of the study is to assess the impact of Mixed Reality training on motor skills of children with autistic spectrum disorder.
