“…Other systems may have limitations, such as a lack of independence to meet patients' medication adherence needs [12,18]. Moreover, some systems require an IoT platform or simulation tools, which may not be accessible to all patients [20,21,24]. Therefore, there is a need for more advanced and accessible IT-based options that can provide mobility, advanced AR technologies and energy harvesting while being affordable and sustainable for Alzheimer's patients and their caregivers.…”

“…As this was happening, other authors researched the literature to develop and test a wrist‐worn, pre‐programmable, customised, smart, GSM‐based task reminder system to assist people living with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (PwADRD) at home. Yet, they proposed a system whose conception and operation would be assessed through the use of simulation tools [24]. Authors in Ref.…”

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.
