Abstract

With the global population aging and increasing prevalence of dementia, there is an urgent need for effective solutions to support patients across various stages of Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias (ADRD). Reminiscence Therapy (RT) is a validated intervention designed to trigger memories and is widely used for various stages of dementia. We present our preliminary prototype and exploration of RemiVoice, a browser-based voice-first conversational AI assistant that supports older adults with mild dementia in RT through conversationally grounded images and videos.
