DREAM Project

Development of Robot-Enhanced Therapy for Children with AutisM spectrum disorders (DREAM) is a large European project financed by the European Commission through the 7th Framework Programme, and co-financed by the Romanian Executive Agency for Higher Education, Research, Development and Innovation Funding (UEFISCDI) for the activities undertaken by the team at the International Institute and Babeș-Bolyai University, in Cluj-Napoca.

The main goal of the project is to develop a new generation of autonomous social robots that are ready to be integrated in psychotherapeutic protocols for the treatment of autism sprectrum disorders. The treatment protocols mediated by robotic agents will be then tested to assess their scientific status.

The Romanian team will be coordinating the clinical component of the project meaning that it will offer input related to the relevant activities that the robot will have to perform and it will implement the clinical tests.
