TeddyTherapy For Gross Motor Dyspraxia

by | Oct 2, 2025 | Uncategorized

This research and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) project, led by Ir. Ts. Dr. Asnida and Ms. Qistina Balqis, focuses on a deeply meaningful application of robotics: the development of a Teddy Therapy Robot. The primary goal is to create an engaging therapeutic tool to assist autistic children who experience gross motor dyspraxia. The innovation involves integrating both hardware (equipped with movement capabilities) and advanced software for motion detection. This system is designed to objectively assess the performance and progress of the activities done by the children. Ultimately, this development not only provides a fun, motivating method for children to improve their motor skills but also serves to assist physical therapists by providing quantifiable data for patient evaluation and personalized intervention.
