I-CARE: Individualized Activation of People with Dementia (2016-2019)

The I-CARE project team develops a tablet-based system that identifies individual activation needs and potentials of people with dementia. On this basis the system provides user-specific activation contents for people with dementia to informal and professional carers. The automatic recognition of emotions such as joy, anger and anxiety plays a pivotal role to enable individual adaptation of activation contents to dynamical changes of the form on the day of people with dementia.
