AI memory companion for dementia care

For memories that matter.

DeMemos shows people living with dementia the photos, videos and voices of their family. Its AI quietly learns what brings them comfort and adapts every day.

Why DeMemos

The oldest memories often stay the longest.

Dementia usually takes recent memories first. The wedding, the summers by the sea, a daughter's voice often stay. DeMemos is built around those moments, at home or in a care home.

01

Faces, places, voices

Photos, short videos and voice messages from loved ones can spark recognition and calm, without asking anyone to remember on demand.

02

Families stay in charge

The family uploads the memories and decides what is shown, when, and how often. The AI only ever works inside that Plan.

03

Technology that adapts

No menus, no passwords. DeMemos notices what Ana responds to and gently shows more of what helps her.

How it works

Family curates. AI adapts. Ana remembers.

The family uploads and plans on their phone. DeMemos AI turns that Plan into a calm, personal slideshow on Ana's screen.

  1. Upload

    Photos, videos and voice recordings, saved on the device or in the cloud.

  2. Plan

    Choose what Ana sees, in what order, at which times and how often it repeats.

  3. Adapt AI

    DeMemos learns which memories Ana responds to and fine-tunes the Plan with you.

  4. Remember

    Ana watches, listens and can talk about what she sees. No buttons to learn.

AI photo restoration

From faded prints to living colour.

Most families and caregivers only have a box of old black-and-white or faded prints. Snap one with a phone and DeMemos AI restores it, so Ana sees her memories as vividly as she lived them.

  • Scan with any phone: no scanner needed.
  • Scratches, dust and fading cleaned up automatically.
  • Faces sharpened and natural colour carefully added.
  • The original is always kept, and the family approves the result.

DeMemos AI

Learns. Adapts. Creates.

An AI layer that turns a family photo album into a companion that understands what Ana needs today.

STAGE 1 · LEARNS

It notices

On-device attention tracking reads head movement and how long Ana looks, and which themes keep coming back.

  • Head position & gaze time
  • Most-shown and best-loved themes
  • Camera images never leave the device
STAGE 2 · ADAPTS

It adjusts

Order, timing and repetition shift towards what helps, always inside the family's Plan, and it suggests the simplest controls for Ana.

  • Smarter playlists within the Plan
  • Suggested controls, approved by family
  • Simple spoken conversation
STAGE 3 · CREATES · FUTURE

It imagines

The most advanced version creates entirely new content, like narrated stories and gentle slideshows, from the family's own material and Ana's history.

  • Generated from family content only
  • Every piece approved by family
  • Coming in a future version
Low-cost hardware

Runs on screens families already own.

No special device needed. DeMemos works on an old phone, a budget tablet, a laptop or the living-room smart TV, and the Patient side gets bigger and simpler on larger screens.

The idea

A gentle way back to the moments that made a life.

DeMemos is a design concept by Adrian Prodan, exploring how AI can feel warm, simple and safe for people living with dementia and the families who love them.
