“…The literature review reveals a significant gap in the availability of IT-based options for Alzheimer's patients. While some systems have been developed, they often have mobility and wearability limitations, such as being too large [18] or lacking advanced AR technologies [17,[19][20][21][22]. For instance, some systems provide practical functions such as pharmaceutical alerts but require device circuits to be encased in a box lacking scalability and sustainability [17,21,22].…”

Medical therapists often manage medications to improve therapeutic outcomes for their patients. For senior patients who take multiple drugs to manage various conditions, medication adherence is critical. To provide an immersive and engaging medication reminder experience, the authors propose i‐Ware, a smart wearable m‐Health (mobile health) device. The system's hardware and software were co‐designed to meet non‐functional requirements. The model reminds patients to take their medication, and the augmented reality goggles aid those who struggle to manage their medicine. The navigation features help users find their way home, and the audio feature reads out the date and time, useful for patients with low vision. The i‐Ware system has the potential for real‐world application and can significantly improve medication adherence. As an AR‐enabled medicine reminder, i‐Ware is an innovative solution for medication management in senior patients.
