Catering for diversity and personalization. One recurring aspect was the variability
of symptoms and progression of dementia. Unlike other diseases it is difficult to foresee
the progression and communication problems arising at different stages. In addition,
how people experience their limitations and how they react in interactions with
others is closely related to their personality and past life experiences. To cater for this
diversity, experts suggested a strong focus on familiarity and personalized content.
The latter could range from media targeted to the preferences and interests of the
people (e.g. providing virtual views into a museum for the art-interested user) to completely
personal media, such as own photographs.
