This is particularly useful, since it would be easy to mass deploy. A quick photo, during a childhood checkup, and it can be easily checked. It doesn't need to be focused, so could catch a lot more, less obvious cases.

As an autistic myself, an early diagnosis would have potentially helped a lot. This would still be true of those who mask well.
