Abstract

Initiatives which focus on the adaptation of technology to people with disabilities are steadily increasing. Assistive technology provides a promising means to help people with disabilities. This paper summarizes MAS, a flexible and scalable software platform designed to help people with disabilities. MAS integrates technologies in order to enable users to use adaptive games, designed to explore, measure, and develop social and cognitive skills of children with disabilities. The designed software platform includes data processing and monitoring tools to monitor user's behavior. Preliminary results of implementation show good acceptance levels both by users and educators.
