Sistema de rastreamento inteligente com assistente virtual para monitoramento de pessoas com Alzheimer

Abstract

This work presents a technological solution designed to mitigate the burden on caregivers of people with Alzheimer's disease through intelligent remote monitoring. The central concept unifies real-time location tracking with proactive management of safety zones (virtual fencing), automating surveillance and the sending of critical alerts via instant messaging channels. Unlike conventional systems based on complex dashboards, the proposal introduces a virtual assistant based on Generative Artificial Intelligence as the primary interface. This approach allows the caregiver to interact with the system and perform technical configurations such as defining perimeters or checking the location through natural language commands, democratizing access to advanced monitoring technology. To validate these concepts, a hardware-agnostic proof of concept was developed, demonstrating the viability of an integrated safety and care ecosystem.
