Abstract

When a child is playing with toy bricks this may reflect creativity, spatial perception and planning ability and repeated playing can also improve this abilities. Since children with disabilities are not able to play with bricks themselves some kind of assistance is needed to enable playing. The paper describes an assistive robotic system that was designed to manipulate bricks that can easily be operated by the children of the target group. Main focus will be set on the description of data recording and statistical evaluation to determine playing behaviour.
