Assisted Cognition
There have been a few recent articles about helping the elderly through brain-related illnesses, such as Alzheimer's. This is done by pervasive computing, which is based on a huge array of varied sensors (electronic badges, infrared detectors and load-sensing beds). This information is taken into account by the AI system (pattern recognition, data-mining techniques) that can assist the occupant of the house through his daily chores. Applications to the elderly is just a start, as many other age groups could benefit from the technology. Wired - The Age of Assisted Cognition
