We understand abstract thinking as the ability to group things under the same categories. For example: Thinks= {green apple, red apple}, Abstract category= Apples. This training in the long term will be helpful to increase the ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) persons communication skills. Goal: This application is for people diagnosed with ASD (any severity). Benefits for the society: The project will benefit to the society in order to give independence to ASD people, integration and a better lifestyle for them and their families. The integration will allow also to recover these patients to be reinserted in the economy and society.
