For clinics and therapy
A therapist's ally in sessions with autistic children
Beo is a social robot that extends the professional's work without replacing it. It turns goals from the individualized plan into interactive, structured and motivating activities for the child.
How it works
Structured activities grounded in ABA
Combining speech, movement, facial expressions and artificial intelligence, Beo supports structured activities based on the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), encouraging the child's attention, interaction and engagement throughout the session.
Goals
The professional sets the goals and skills to work on with the child.
Activities
Based on those goals, they choose activities from the library, with speech, movements and expressions already programmed for Beo.
Adjustments
Activities can be edited to suit each child's characteristics and preferences.
Session
During the session, the professional follows the interaction and leads the activities with the robot's support.
