Aware (research initiative)

Aware is a research initiative focused on understanding and improving how individuals, especially those with neurodevelopmental disorders like autism, experience and manage their sensory environments. Its goal is to develop tools and strategies—such as wearable sensors and data analysis techniques—to help people better recognize and regulate their sensory responses, reducing stress and enhancing well-being. By combining insights from neuroscience, engineering, and psychology, Aware aims to create personalized interventions that support independence and quality of life for individuals with sensory processing differences.
