Multimodal Sensory Co-Regulation & Negotiation
When negotiating whether to leave the classroom during high sensory load, the Harmony Engine combines non-verbal tactile stress, translated cues, and parent priorities to build fair, calibrated compromise options.
Real-time telemetry gathered across active cube facets:
A step-by-step, plain-language guide showcasing the bidirectional translation and negotiation process between autistic children and family members.
During sensory overload or stress, the student simply squeezes the tactile pad (Face 1). No spoken words required.
Face 2 converts the physical squeeze into clear, supportive text for the parent's device (*"I am overwhelmed and need a break"*).
When the parent sends a text message, Face 2 translates the text into gentle haptic vibration patterns on the child's cube.
The Harmony Negotiation Side (Face 4) balances the student's distress with the learning goals, proposing 3 fair compromise choices.
Continuous pressure sensors and ribbed tactile textures. Squeezing communicates distress level without forcing speech.
Translates Child Squeeze ➔ Parent Text and translates Parent Text ➔ Child Haptic Vibration Patterns.
Low-stimulation text interface for family members to send considerate messages and micro-break proposals quietly.
AI or clinician negotiation step-in that balances child sensory distress, parent text, and classroom goals into 3 compromise options.
