Requirement elicitation for a toilet training wearable watch to serve autistic children

Activity sequencing is one of the deficits that autism children encounter. One of the essential skills that involve activity sequencing is toilet training which is difficult, cumbersome and sometimes never achieved for autistic children. This paper presents the requirement elicitation of Toilet Training Sequencing (TTS) wearable watch to provide customized support for autism children in toilet training. The presented prototype will help autistic children to dispense the paper based activity sequencing and thus increase the adaptation of the child with any place. The requirement elicitation techniques were conducted in collaboration with non-profit specialized centers in serving children with autism in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia "Mother of Faisal Autism Center (MFAC)". The results of the semi-structured interview, field observation and focus group are provided. The TTS prototype is demonstrated to show its applicability and effectiveness, it also includes the use of visual supports to diminish effort and time.
