Abstract

This project is purposely to develop a mobile application prototype on Video Modeling Assistance for Autism (VIMAS) and to evaluate the usability of the prototype. Until today, there is no specific video modeling tools and application to help them to properly act at various categories of locations in the community. Hence, the mobile application on Android for VIMAS will provide an application for autism children aged between 7 until 18 in order for them to live a normal life like other typical children. VIMAS will provide a great Video Modeling (VM) tool that can show and highlight to the autism children on “what to do?” in certain categories of locations. At the moment, there will be only 4 categories of locations; Dentist, Playground, Hairdresser & School. VIMAS will also be integrated with GPS function so that wherever they go, they will know how to adapt with the current location situation. A normal child aged between 7 until 18 will be used as the role player or model in the video. Each location will contain a video of the normal child modeling an appropriate sequence of actions, so that the autism children can imitate the sequence of actions that have been modeled by the normal child in the video. In order to develop the prototype, ADDIE model has been adopted as the generic process flow for the whole project. In summary, we can say that VIMAS is reliable for autism children and with that, it can be used by the autism children for their future betterment in social and communication skills.
