| Abstract | The purpose of my project was to design and develop a garment that senses ambient conditions that have the potential to affect the wellbeing of patients, especially those with cognitive impairment. These conditions include location, temperature, lighting level and patient orientation. The garment is able to transmit the collected data to a central computer application, which monitors the data and alerts caregivers to potential endangerment. |
