Abstract
The research in computing technology enables many areas to have a tremendous advantage. Education is one field where the traditional classrooms are replaced by E-classrooms and is proved to be effective in showing student’s progress. The study carried out by International Clinical Epidemiology Network Trust (INCLEN) shows that there are ten millions of children in India who suffer from autism. Autism is a kind of development disorder of an individual with a deficit in learning ability, social interaction and language skills. In the recent past, there are many research scholars working across the world to provide supporting aids which are personalized based on the assessment of the child. This paper provides the details of the app developed that is personalized a solution to kids of age group 3–4 years to overcome the learning disability through a comfortable handheld device.
