Abstract

Moments is a wearable device designed for helping people suffering from early stage Alzheimer's disease (AD) be able to walk alone outdoors independently. Moments is featured by a voice control interface that allows users to follow pre-recorded instructions to travel along the routes preset by their care partners. We conducted user and expert research and then a user test with five early stage AD patients to collect their feedbacks on the prototype in order to improve our final design. Moments makes early stage AD patients feel secure while walking outside alone, and thus maintains their autonomy.
