Psychologists all animated over app hopes to transport autistic kids to the next level

Parents now have a powerful tool at their disposal to better cope with the emotions of autistic children, thanks to a groundbreaking mobile application developed by Chinese University and Heep Hong Society.

The Transporters app, launched yesterday, serves as an intervention tool designed to enhance emotional cognition in children on the autism spectrum.

Its underlying concept originated from an anime series created by the Autism Research Centre and The Autism Centre of Excellence at Cambridge University.
