In this study, we present results about using gestural interaction with the Kinect sensor to improve the reading skills of students with Down syndrome. We found improvements in the visual association, visual comprehension, sequential memory, and visual integration after this stimulation in the experimental group compared to the control group. We also found that the number of errors and delay time in the interaction decreased between sessions in the experimental group}, organization = {The authors would like to thank Nuria ReyesAlonso and Selene Hernández-Morales for their active help in this study, developed under their supervision in the Tenerife Down Association; also, thanks to Lorenzo Moreno Ruiz, the children, and families of this Association for their participation in the study.
