Resumen

Children with autism are mainly affected in their abilities in the areas of behavior, socialization, language and learning. In order to improve the latter, this article presents a mobile application with augmented reality, which seeks to complement the education that these children normally receive and which may not always be optimal. To achieve this goal, Vuforia was used, Augmented Reality technology that will allow the use of 3D models on mobile devices. At the same time, a web application was developed from which the children’s progress could be monitored and whose access corresponds to the specialists previously assigned to each case. The results obtained by meeting the levels of the application and the final comments of the children’s caregivers confirmed the improvement in learning.
