Forgotten Faces

My eldest brother will be 80 next year and he is suffering from dementia, such that he is struggling to recognise faces, even of his own family, can the glasses be adapted to store images of the faces of people he regularly interacts with so that when it recognises the person he can be advised of their name discreetly in his ear, it could also be used for things like combination locks of a door when the door is approached he is advised of the number which he frequently forgets et cetera – the list is endless. I’m not sure if this is the right forum to get the idea to those that would consider it, if not, perhaps somebody would guide me towards that– thank you – Peter

  • That's an amazing idea! I don't know how to do it but I bet at least the faces is possible.

    This is such a cool idea and I could see it being really useful! This is also the right place to pitch ideas and connect with developers who might be interested in working on new projects - I'm sure there are people in the community who would love to take on a challenge like this.
