DESIGN CHANCE
Greying society is now also becoming one serious problem in China. With people getting older, there is also a growing chance of suffering from dementia. Sadly, dementia is actually one long-time sickness, which has both bad effect on patient themselves,,and their relatives who have to take care.
Patients suffer.
The relatives go over great stress.
L I T E R AT U R E COLLECTING By searching for different kinds of documents and talking with related doctors, I have had a detailed understanding of the illness, and patints' life style. After that, I decided to do some things about early-time patients. The early period is longer than middle and later, and during that time, the elerly still can do lots of things as long as they are reminded. But they always get lost and forget something important, which leaves their relatives suffer a lot.
DESIGN ORIENTATION
calendar data location data living condition data
I decided to relate elderly and their family in a digital and convienent way.

SKETCHING AGAIN AND TRY MORE ON INTERFACES
After the propose, my teacher thinks both of them were not fit to the elderly. So I decided to combine the product with things elderly often use. Such as wallet, keys, radio and so on.
