This project, based on Kinect somatosensory technology, has developed a digital somatosensory game for social training of autistic children – "Boundless Stars". By creating an indirect social environment, the game helps reduce autistic children's hypersensitivity to external stimuli and peers, while simultaneously creating collaborative opportunities through physical kinesthetic training to exercise their social skills. The game allows 2-4 autistic children and typically developing children to jointly drive a car and avoid obstacles. Social objectives such as following rules, seeking help, and understanding others are mapped into the game mechanics. Utilizing clear feedback effects and progressively increasing difficulty levels, the game enables children to enhance their social abilities in a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. This project aims to leverage digital technology to provide autistic children with more opportunities to engage with the world, thereby promoting educational equity and social integration.
