AI assistant for people with dementia
Memoria is an AI-enhanced device system designed to aid individuals experiencing dementia and memory loss. This product tackles the gradual loss of memories by providing a range of assistance, from gathering personal data to offering support for memory recall, specifically targeting those in the early stages of cognitive decline. The main device features a flexible display, speakers, a tilting mechanism, a charging coil, a printed circuit board (PCB), and a battery, all assembled into a dignified and visually appealing form. It connects to a secure database of personal memories and engages users through cognitive activities and contextual recall. The adaptable flexible screen adjusts to varying lighting conditions for an improved interaction experience. Additionally, there is a wearable component, which can be worn as a bracelet or necklace using a magnetic base, that extends the system's functionality into the user’s home environment. This wearable includes an RFID antenna, PCB, battery, and charging coil, and it communicates with small chips placed throughout the residence to assist users in recognizing objects and locations in real-time. Futurewave handled the complete product design, industrial aesthetics, electronics integration, embedded software, and system architecture, resulting in a manufacturable, user-friendly assistive product that connects physical interaction with a digital memory system.
