Juguetes, tecnología y discapacidad. Ingeniería aplicada al diseño de juguetes adaptados

Abstract

This article exposes the interest of the Electrocun group with the support of the idecun research group of Corporación Unificada de Educación Superior, cun, to venture into the design and develo­pment of toys adapted for children in disability condition. This descriptive article presents the first stage of design of a functional prototype of a game adapted for children with cognitive disabilities and with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (adhd). The scope of this document covers a context of what is cognitive disability and adhd, how engineering supports the design and development of toys adapted for recreational and therapeutic purposes, and a description of the initial development phase of the prototype objective of this project.
