Patient’s reaction to smartwatch based interventions in a controlled environment: preliminary results from the SAMi intervention study

Assistive technologies show promising features to support people with cognitive impairment in daily life, e.g. mobile sensors for falls detection or getting lost. On the other hand, smartwatches bear potential to not only monitor but also interact with the user. While sensor based monitoring in dementia care is already part of many projects, direct interaction of people with cognitive impairment with smartwatches is little investigated.
