Abstract

This paper discusses how technological potential have brought true benefit to the lives of people with Alzheimer.Contextual scenarios that illustrate certain problems faced by Alzheimer patients in their daily lives have been mapped out, and a conceptual solution enabled by technology is proposed. A discussion on the feasibility of this solution and its implementation ensues.
