Using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in Locating Wandering Patients with Dementia
Abstract
This paper presents findings from three experiments involving the use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for the purpose of locating a wandering person whose behavior resembles the behavior of a wandering patient with dementia. Additionally, it presents research review on the use of UVs in locating wandering eprsons with dementia. The characteristics of this critical form of wandering‐‐or eloping—are discussed. By using test subjects simulating …
