Introduction

Over the next few years, what developments can be expected in the intersection of interactive technology with bioengineering-based interventions for autism and neuroscientific research? The field of interactive design has seen remarkable advancements, establishing robust methods that aid in autism education and enhance quality of life. Simultaneously, various computer-assisted methods for analyzing and quantifying brain structure and function have entered the market, potentially enhancing sensitivity in detecting brain abnormalities imperceptible to the human eye. Task-based human-computer interaction is becoming increasingly practical and garnering attention as a tool to assist in improving conditions through bioengineering methods. Furthermore, interactive technologies offer expanded possibilities for diagnosing autism, deepening our understanding of disease progression. In this special issue, we welcome submissions exploring the latest interdisciplinary developments in the integration of interactive technology and bioengineering.
