Butterfly Learnings Launches Autism Screening in India
Imagine a new tool that uses eye movements to help spot autism in young children.
Butterfly Learnings has launched this tool in India, called Get Set Early.
Developed with technology from Dr. Karen Pierce at UCSD, this system looks at how a child's eyes move to assess the risk of autism.
The tool is aimed at children aged 1 to 4 years old.
This screening can be done quickly and is expected to cost less than Rs 1,500 per child.
The company is initially launching in cities like Mumbai and Pune and plans to expand.
They hope this will help more children get the support they need early on, improving their outcomes.
Butterfly Learnings launched an autism screening tool in India using eye-tracking technology.
The system, Get Set Early, is approved by CDSCO.
The tool was developed by Karen Pierce at UCSD.
The target age group is 1-4 years old.
The company anticipates 30% of revenues from Get Set Early in 3-5 years.
