UAE: Mums create AI teddy bear to help neurodivergent kids communicate better - Khaleej Times

Khaleej Times ·

Two mothers in the UAE have created an AI-powered teddy bear named "Emar" designed to help neurodivergent children communicate. Emar uses sensors and machine learning to analyze a child's emotional state through voice and touch. The AI then provides feedback and suggests coping mechanisms to both the child and their parents. Why it matters: This innovative application of AI offers a novel approach to supporting neurodivergent children and their families in the UAE.

AI for Engineering Design
