ABSTRACT
Reminiscence therapy is an important aspect in the care for people with dementia and improves their well-being. So far, only conventional media is used (e.g. photos, photo books). Through user research with people with dementia and their caregivers, we are looking at how technology can support reminiscence therapy through multimedia and multimodal stimuli.
