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.

摘要 这个快速跟踪SBIR项目将开发一个信息系统，以帮助记忆障碍的人。 阿尔茨海默氏症和阿尔茨海默氏症相关痴呆症的早期阶段通常会引起记忆问题。人 记忆问题通常不能将名字与面孔匹配，或者不能识别具有确定感觉的面孔 熟悉有记忆问题的人可能难以记住家庭成员的名字， 朋友，或者可能用错误的名字称呼他们。他们能认出每天看到的面孔，比如配偶， 照顾者，但他们可能会混淆访问的朋友和孙子。无法记住名字或 人际关系导致孤立，并深深影响他们的社会生活。建议的解决方案是 智能手表提醒系统，以醒目地向有记忆问题的人提供此信息 在需要的时候。该系统将自动将图片和相关信息传输到佩戴的智能手表上 当家人或朋友来访时，有记忆问题的人。该系统将在目标上进行评估 有记忆力的人关注人口，以衡量社会互动的参与和改善， 生活质量该研究小组对记忆问题人群具有丰富的经验， 包括软件工程师、人为因素专家和实验研究专家。
