\"Ned<\/a>
By Pat Greehouse\/Globe Staff<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Can technology help children with autism accomplish what other educational efforts have not? Ned Sahin aims to find out.<\/p>\n

Sahin founded Brain Power, a Cambridge startup that is using Google Glass to teach children with autism how to better engage and socialize with people. Brain Power is developing a series of applications, one of which will display images of popular cartoon characters on the screen of Google Glass, so that when an autistic child looks at an adult talking to him, an image from, say \u201cAngry Birds\u201d or \u201cFrozen\u201d pops up.<\/p>\n

The goal is to draw kids\u2019 attention to faces. When they turn their heads to make eye contact, the cartoon goes away and the face is revealed, and they can earn points, as they would in a video game.<\/p>\n

Another app digitally accentuates the person\u2019s eyes to attract attention, because autistic children are known to focus on the speaker\u2019s mouth.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are designing tools to coach children . . . to make eye contact, increase connection to those around them, and unleash the potential of their brain,\u201d Sahin said. He’s developed a series of apps designed to help with emotion recognition and language development, in real-time, and in training mode.<\/p>\n

Brain Power will test its product in a clinical trial at Massachusetts General Hospital, beginning in April.<\/p>\n
