It's like combining the teacups with a roller coaster

Not for sale yet, but an interesting toy concept for children with autism
This is kind of a fascinating idea for a toy for children with autism to work on socialization skills.

Looks like the same concept and though process as My Keepon which was a waste of money. It hit the market at about $60 and a month later was on the clearance racks for $9.99. Personally I hate the name too. My son has been referred as "an auti" and I find it offensive. JMO thanks for sharing though, I'm interested in seeing the response when this hits the market.

I'm thinking that the response to shouting and hitting is a bit off - people don't usually stop responding after a single hit or one loud statement. Kids would hit back, or yell back, etc. The reponses just aren't practical. Of course, you don't want to make a device that hits back, or bites, or smacks you, or screams!
It could be useful if you wanted to introduce a pet into the family - it would teach the child how to pet gently, I would think?
