SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETECTION OF COGNITIVE AND DEVELOPMENTAL CONDITIONS

摘要

Systems, devices, and methods are described for the assessment, screening, monitoring, or diagnosis of developmental or cognitive conditions, including autism spectrum disorders (ASD) by analysis of eye tracking data generated from feedback received as a result of display of specific predetermined visual stimuli to a subject or patient. Subsequent to a calibration phase, a testing procedure is performed by presenting predetermined stimuli (e.g., videos) to a subject via a display device. Eye tracking data (from the subject moving his or her eyes in response to predetermined movies or other visual stimuli) are collected. During the data collection period, the system periodically presents targets to reflexively elicit the subject's gaze. These data are used to later verify accuracy. Analysis of the subject's viewing patterns during these stimuli is used for the assessment, screening, monitoring, or diagnosis of developmental or cognitive conditions such as ASD.

主权项

1. A system comprising a frame that supports:
a display device; a sensor for detecting eye movement of a subject in response to a stimulus displayed by the display device; and a support device for seating the subject, wherein the support device is adjustable to position the subject in an orientation with respect to the display device and the sensor that allows for collection of eye movement data, and wherein the support device, once positioned, confines the subject in said orientation.
