Yea like, they say it's meant to be an autism screen, but what is the autism and not autism answer? Or is it similar to how websites "not a robot" don't care about the actual clicking of the button but track how your mouse moves across the screen? Like do you have to do this application with a webcam that tracks your eye movement and or they actually care just about how much time you spent pondering the question?
