Abstract:
Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) presents a global challenge, characterized by neuro degeneration that strips individuals of their memory, spatial orientation, and social identity. This paper introduces the "Forget Me Not" Cognitive Companion, an innovative wearable ecosystem designed as an "external hippocampus" to bridge cognitive gaps through Active Cognitive Augmentation. Unlike traditional passive monitors, this device utilizes Edge AI and TinyML to provide real time, context-aware assistance—including facial recognition whispered via bone conduction, haptic directional navigation, and predictive gait analysis for fall prevention. By integrating Multi-Sensory Memory Triggers—such as olfactory stimulation and biometric stress detection—the system addresses both the functional and emotional needs of the patient. The framework emphasizes Data Sovereignty and Dignity First design to ensure patient privacy and reduce the stigma associated with medical devices. Preliminary conceptual analysis suggests that this multi-modal approach significantly enhances patient autonomy while drastically reducing caregiver "vigilance fatigue."
Keywords: Alzheimer’s Disease, Cognitive Augmentation, Edge AI, Wearable Assistive Technology, Facial Recognition, TinyML, Caregiver Burden, Biometric Monitoring, Neurodegeneration, Context Aware Systems.
