The benefits of virtual worlds can be used to help autistic children develop social skills beyond their anticipatedlevels, suggest early findings from new research funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC). 21 October 2011 The benefits of virtual worlds can be used to help autistic children develop social skills beyond their anticipated levels, suggest early findings from new research funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC). Researchers on the Echoes Project have developed an interactive environment which uses multi-touch screen technology where virtual characters on the screener act to children’s actions in real time.

Designing with Vision, a system using eye-tracking technology, has been developed by researchers at The Open University and the University of Leeds to give computer-aided design users a more fluid human-machine interface. The software can identify and select shapes of interest automatically within a drawn sketch. The combination of eye-tracking technology and conventional mouse-based input allows initial design sketches to be manipulated and developed according to the user’s subconscious visual cues.

Radio-frequency identification - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
RFID chip next to a grain of rice. This chip contains a radio-frequency electromagnetic field coil that modulates an external magnetic field to transfer a coded identification number when queried by a reader device. This small type is incorporated in consumer products, and even implanted in pets, for identification. Radio-frequency identification ( RFID ) is the use of a wireless non-contact system that uses radio-frequency electromagnetic fields to transfer data from a tag attached to an object, for the purposes of automatic identification and tracking. Some tags require no battery and are powered by the electromagnetic fields used to read them. Others use a local power source and emit radio waves ( electromagnetic radiation at radio frequencies).
