The Room of Regulation:
A Coping Mechanism for Autistic Children
through a Virtual Experience
VR Experience
My value in humans and technology has led me to understand that the true design I enjoy creating is tailored toward helping make a difference, triggering me to develop the Room of Regulation made for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) for my thesis project. The Room of Regulation is a virtual reality safe space, that helps children with Autism cope with their emotions. Communication is a huge barrier that many autistic children deal with on a daily basis. Due to the communicational breakdown, a common way of coping is through the physical destruction of property.
