Square in the Eye Glasses
Heidi Kershaw recently received a patent (No. 12329525) for "Square in the Eye Glasses." These are glasses that play video content to help train individuals with autism to make eye contact. From the patent: The present invention relates generally to systems and methods for providing therapeutic training to individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). In particular, the present invention relates to a therapeutic training device that is worn by a therapist, the training device comprising a video display that is positioned over the eyes of the therapist and configured to show media content preferred by an individual with ASD. The training device is further capable of adjusting an opacity of the media content on the video display, whereby the eyes of the therapist may increasingly be viewed through the video display as the opacity of the media content is reduced. Sounds like a cool idea. I think Kershaw could also make money selling the glasses as a novelty item. More info: squareintheeye.org
