Abstract
This project presents a voice-assisted dashboard system designed specifically for dementia patients and their caregivers. Dementia impairs memory, reasoning, and communication skills, leading to confusion and loss of independence. This system aims to provide cognitive support and ease the burden of caregivers by offering both general conversation abilities and specialized voice commands to retrieve or update vital patient-related data.
The application consists of two core modules: a general conversational agent and a special case handler. The general conversation module is managed using a fine-tuned large language model, while the special case handler allows retrieval and manipulation of structured data such as medication schedules, caregiver contact details, and patient notes stored in a local SQLite database. Additionally, a simple, user-friendly dashboard built using Stream lit allows caregivers to visualize interactions, schedule medicine, and manage care-routines.
This project demonstrates how voice technology, when thoughtfully combined with structured data management and assistive UI design, can create a meaningful support system for dementia patients, helping maintain autonomy and improving overall quality of life.
