Abstract

New approaches are required to address the need of care for the increasing number of dementia patients reaching 115 million worldwide in 2050. This article discusses research on a combined AAL approach that enables early diagnosis through mobility assessment, assessment of need of care by activity monitoring, estimation of fall risk, and support for everyday life activities for dementia patients in their domestic environments.
