Homie GPS Tracker for dementia patients
Go home safe always
PROJECT BACKGROUND
According to the statistics from the Hong Kong Housing Society, around 1,000 elders in Hong Kong go missing every year. Among these 1,000 elders, about 5% of them could not be found. In this project, we have interviewed dementia carers and frontline professionals. We found that the existing GPS trackers in the market are not quite suitable for patients with dementia and their carers.
PROJECT CONCEPT
The solution proposed is to integrate the product into user's daily life in the most natural way, i.e. putting the trackers in the shoe insoles. Making use of Apple's Airtag technology in association with a relevant App and identity card holder with tracking function. The patients can thus go out with confidence while caregivers can be less worried about finding the patients’ whereabouts after leaving home.
