Development of a device with assist people with significant degradation in their memory
Director of Study: Prof. Reza Saatchi
Additional Information: Open to all students; self-funded/governments sponsored/industry funded.
All studies are innovative, aiming to meet a real unmet need in medical engineering. Most are in collaboration with industry and hospitals
Summary
Memory and recall are important as part of for daily life and for interaction with others. Memory degradation can have multiple causes and it is important to minimise its impact on the individuals affected.
In this study a device consisting of a microprocessor, user interface and suitable integrated software will be developed to assist people with significant memory degradation to enable them to have an improved like experience.
The work is primarily suited for graduates with a degree or MSc in electronics, physics, mathematics, computing, mechanics or related subjects.
