Research on Dyslexia and Eye Tracking
project discription
Learning the alphabet is a key part of primary education. As the building blocks for the future. By giving a bigger value to dyslexic thinking, we begin to take positive steps towards supporting, acepting and conventualize that our neighbor at school is dyslectic. It’s a skill, its like being good in math. AI as eye tracking, research, data studies, interventions and small communities will disrupt dyslexia in the future.
research
NIH research has shown that dyslexia affects 20% of the population, in mild forms as well as more severely. Dyslexic minds process information differently, creatively. Naturally curious, highly creative with an ability to unconventionally connect the dots and think literally. This different way of thinking often results in challenges with traditional learning and processing. So traditional benchmarks in both education and employment, often accentuate these challenges and miss the strengths.
machine learning & eye-tracking
By looking into the 4th Industrial revolution with advanced deep learning technology in eye tracking, an increased connectivity to new industries has been created, new business models, new jobs, and entirely new skills. Creative thinkers and dyslexic thinkers are the key to make sense of the change and disruption. Experts in the field of eye tracking and dyslexia proofed that eye movements is one of the best ways to index reading ability at an incredibly in-depth level. Studies show that a combination of eye tracking and machine learning to screen for dyslexia.
