As the camera's memory Tool for Patients with Severe Amnesia

For patients who have diseases such as Amnesia forgotten memory or Alzheimer's disease, will be helped by an invention called the camera SenseCam.

"SenseCam help patients to remember things in bits and pieces though, it's better than creating a new memory" said Dr Emma Berry, a clinical neuropsychologist, who has been working with memory loss patients using this camera.

KabarIT launched from CNN, SenseCam is a small camera with low resolution (about 1 / 3 Mega Pixel). This camera uses a Fish Eye lens dengen shooting speed 2 frames per minute. This camera is used by patients to meningat events in everyday life. Despite not having a high kulaitas, the results obtained image is enough to be a key to encourage the brain to remember the events of everyday life.

This research program also works with Microsoft Research to conduct clinical trials.

This tool has been tested to a female patient who had severe amnesia disease. By using this camera, the patient regularly to see the pictures on the camera to trigger memory. Although fragmentary images that have been at SenseCam, the patient can retell the events that are not in this camera.

Alzheimer's disease is a decrease in brain function is complex and progressive loss caused due to malnutrition in the brain. People with this disease usually have a tendency to have low memory can not even control herself. Results of research using SenseCam, has Alzheimer's clinical progress can tell the events of the past 3 months without using SenseCam again. This camera has a memory of 1GB, with low image quality, this camera can store 30,000 images files. Also included is the embedded sensors such as infra-red, hot, heart rate and blood pressure monitoring to record health data. Although not officially for sale, expected SenseCam sold for $ 800.
