Application designed for children with Autism Spectrum Transformation (ASD) that allows the creation of information panels through the use of pictograms.
Two modules are included within the APP:
- Weekly Panel, with the objective of reflecting the most relevant activities that will take place over a week. There are four modes of operation, which are activated through one of the available menus:
1. Upload picto. Default mode. Clicking on the blank space displayed below each day will access the storage of the mobile device to upload the desired image / pictogram.
2. Delete picto. It will delete the image / pictogram that you click on.
3. Red blade. Draw a red cross over the selected image / pictogram. The objective is to transfer the child that an initially planned activity will not be able to be carried out.
4. Done. It will include a green check on the image / pictogram to represent that the activity has been completed.
Additionally, a second menu is included that enables the day selection arrow to be enabled. If this option is activated, a red arrow will be displayed when clicking on any of the days of the week. The objective of this option is to help the child in their temporary perception by highlighting the exact day of the week in which we are.
- Daily Panel, which allows you to collect the sequence of activities that will be carried out over a day. As in the previous case, there is a configuration menu with the following options:
1. Upload picto
2. Delete picto
3. Red blade
4. Done
5. Red Arrow, which causes a red arrow to be displayed on the selected pictogram. The objective is to reinforce that said activity is what is being carried out (or is going to be carried out) at that time.
6. Add extra picto. It allows to include a support image / pictogram below the main image / pictogram. A use case can be to add the photo of a person to inform the child that the activity in question will be carried out with that person (i.e. teacher, therapist, etc.)
In both modules there are two additional menus: one to clean the panel and another to block it (i.e. to avoid deleting or altering picts by mistake)
The precise application of read and write permissions on device storage. These permissions are necessary to persist the created panels, since otherwise all the images / pictograms loaded will be lost every time the application is exited
