Developing a skin conductance device for early Autism Spectrum Disorder diagnosis

Autism Spectrum Disorder is a multi-parametric disorder affecting people and specially children. It is important to detect autistic children as soon as possible to conduct adequate treatment. In this paper we develop a skin conductance device capable of measuring the galvanic skin conductance and help diagnosing autistic children from the first weeks after their born. As skin conductance is directly affected by the emotional arousal. With the development of cloud services it is important that advances in technology help physicians in diagnosing autistic people.
