The paper presents a research project, named ASD-Robot, which aims to promote the development of social skills in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder. The robot was designed and built specifically to be integrated into the usual psycho-educational interventions for children with autism. This robot acts as a mediator in relationships between peers and promote social skills. Specifically, the aim of the project is to create an open-source robot that is programmable and customizable by anyone to adapt it to the particular needs of children.
