Abstract
With the general increase of life span that our advances in health
care have afforded us, more people are suffering from short term
memory loss than ever before. Short term memory sufferers often forget
what they were doing in the middle of a task and can find themselves
in dangerous situations, such as leaving the stove on and leaving
the house. They could benefit from an RFID based reminder system
that would determine what they were doing based on what objects they
touch. To use the system, the user wears an RFID glove which has
a reader in the palm. The RFID glove reads the tags on the nearby
objects. Along with the RFID glove we are developing an application
that enables the user to interact with a reminder application. The
application alerts the user of important activities they may have
forgotten they started and when an activity is interrupted. It also
keeps a record of the list of activities they have performed and
objects they have touched through out the day.
