项目摘要

Abstract This Fast Track SBIR project will develop an informatics system to assist people with memory impairment. Early stages of Alzheimer's and Alzheimer's related dementia often causes memory concerns. Persons with Memory Concern often cannot match names with faces or cannot recognize faces with a sure feeling of familiarity. Persons with Memory Concern may have difficulty remembering the names of family members and friends or may address them with a wrong name. They recognize the faces they see daily, such as a spouse or caregiver, but they may confuse visiting friends and grandchildren. The inability to remember names or relationships contributes to isolation and deeply affects their social lives. The proposed solution is a Smartwatch Reminder system to conspicuously provide this information to the Persons with Memory Concern when needed. This system will automatically transmit pictures and relevant information to a smartwatch worn by the Persons with Memory Concern when family or friends visit. The system will be evaluated on the target persons with memory concern population to measure engagement and improvements in social interactions and quality of life. The research team is highly experienced with the Persons with Memory Concern population and includes software engineers, a human factors expert, and experimental study experts.

抽象的这个快速的SBIR项目将开发一个信息系统，以帮助有记忆障碍的人。阿尔茨海默氏症和阿尔茨海默氏症相关的痴呆症的早期阶段通常引起记忆问题。与人在一起的人记忆问题通常无法与面孔相匹配，或者无法确定的感觉识别面孔熟悉。有记忆关注的人可能很难记住家人的名字，朋友或可能用错误的名字来解决他们。他们认识到每天看到的面孔，例如配偶或照顾者，但他们可能会混淆来访的朋友和孙子。无法记住名称或人际关系有助于孤立，并对他们的社会生活产生深远的影响。提出的解决方案是智能手表提醒系统明显地向具有内存关注的人提供此信息需要时。该系统将自动将图片和相关信息传输到智能手表当家人或朋友访问时，有记忆担心的人。该系统将在目标上进行评估有记忆的人涉及人群衡量社会互动的参与和改善和生活质量。研究小组对有记忆的人群的经验丰富包括软件工程师，人为因素专家和实验研究专家。
