| Sumario: | Part of a special issue on technology and aging. Autominder is an assistive technology system designed to support people with cognitive impairment. Developed at the University of Michigan, Autominder gives patients flexible, adaptive, and personalized reminders of their daily activities. It uses artificial intelligence to develop rich models of an individual's activities, including constraints on the times and ways in which activities are carried out. Preliminary field tests of the technology have been conducted, but Autominder remains a prototype system, and systematic studies of its effectiveness have not yet been completed.
