Abstract

Alzheimer is a disease that has aroused the interest of several researchers around the world for decades, and so far, no cure has been found to end its proliferation. One of the critical symptoms of AD is memory loss, something that puts the patient at great risk and puts his family in pain. This research aims to resolve this problem, it focuses on the development of an integrated solution, which will help Alzheimer's patient to have a certain autonomy and to create a certain peace of mind among their relatives. This project is divided into two main parts an electronic bracelet and an informatic platform. Hence, the electronic bracelet which is mainly based on a GPS technology, will allow a real-time monitoring of the movements of the patient wearing it, and the informatic platform will allow the people taking care of the patient to visualise his actual position. This smart solution will reduce the risk of patients to get lost in the streets, and also can gather information form patient all over the world to study their behaviour, and consequently have more comprehensibility of this disease. In this article, we will present the core concept of the electronic bracelet, and the architecture of the informatic platform.
