Rob’Autism project was started in 2014, it aims at setting a therapy support for ASD (Autistic Spectrum Disorder) teenagers based on robot, art and culture mediations. The objective of the therapy support is to improve social skills. At its center is the improvement of the capacity to build and destroy affective links with the environment, or generate and drop communication relation with the external world. Three points were addressed to restore social links management: individual, collective and social communication. The experiments were organized in 20 working sessions of 1 hour per week and involved 6 teenagers, 3 robots and 6 accompanying people. During the sessions, a repetitive scenario is performed proposing a fixed frame in which controlled events can occur, in such way that the subjects environment remains simplified. During the 20 sessions, the subjects are supervised to build a show, which is presented to an external public. Up to now, eight groups were studied (48 subjects in total by groups of 6). The results show a redefinition of the subjects’ identity and their legitimacy as members of the society.
