“…Tech companies have been showing a growing interest toward the generation of “smart” devices for physiological monitoring and assessment of cognitive functions, both heavily affected in dementia-related disorders. The emerging technologies that hold great promise in the prognosis of neurodegenerative disorders cover a wide spectrum of applications, ranging from the development of wearable devices, such as fitness trackers, smartwatches, and mobile apps, to artificial intelligence platforms, VR, and game-based systems, purposely designed for early diagnosing, monitoring and treating dementia symptoms (Zygouris et al, 2017 ; Mandryk and Birk, 2019 ; Piau et al, 2019 ; Bloniecki et al, 2021 ; Gielis et al, 2021 ; Majnarić et al, 2021 ).
