Dementia Sign Detection System using SNS Agency Robot, Ultra-small Sensor, and Wearable Device

Abstract

In dementia diagnosis, it is important to determine whether there is cognitive decline and impairment of life functions. In this study, we propose a dementia sign detection system that can detect cognitive function disorders and life function disorders by linking the SNS agency robot with ultra-small sensors inside and outside an elderly person's home and a wearable device (e.g., a smartphone) that can capture the elderly's behaviors outside the house. In this paper, we present the results of a verification experiment conducted to verify the feasibility of this system.
