The pursuit of enhancing social inclusion for individuals with Autism andIntellectual Disabilities (ID) has prompted the development of various AssistiveTechnologies (AT). These technologies aim to provide personalized support,facilitating communication, social interaction, and skill development. Thecategories of AT explored in this document include computer AT, virtual realitytechnologies, wearable technologies, artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, andmobile applications (apps).

To facilitate the implementation of computer AT, we have identified goodpractices emphasizing individualization, collaboration, evidence-basedapproaches, training and support, accessibility, and ethical considerations. Inthe following sections, we will evaluate six recent practices in the last five yearsbased on these principles.
