Abaris: Capture and Access for Structured One-on-One Educational Settings
In Extended Abstracts of the Seventh International Conference on Ubiquitous Computing (Ubicomp), Tokyo, Japan, Sep. 2005 (bib)

We present Abaris, an automated capture and access application that provides access to details of particular sessions of discrete trial training (DTT), a highly structured intervention therapy for children with autism (CWA). By using Abaris, therapists can capture manual data and index automatically into video of their sessions using perception technologies. These indices allow them to easily find particular scenes within the video to correspond to salient moments indicated by the manually collected data. Abaris includes an access interface that allows therapists to review sessions similarly to their current practices while providing new features previously unavailable to them.
