Summary:Technological advances have helped humanity to improve in different areas of their daily activities, however there are some population sectors that have not been benefited accordingly, especially those social groups with mental or motor disabilities. This project is focused on complementing current therapies in order to improve the life quality of kids in the spectrum by the design and development of didactic toys which might help them to develop cognitive, coordination, sensorial and motor skills. The toys were made with knowledge acquired by the mechatronic students, in the area of electronics and microcontrollers.
