• In this study, we investigate the relationship between the developmental age of very young able bodied children and their interation with the Hero 2000 robot. This study will be used to design protocol for disabled children using the Hero 2000 robot. Exceptional children are at a much higher risk of developmental delays because of their inability to control the world around them. We anticipate that robotics can be used to assist in the cognitive development of motorically disabled children from one to three years of age.
