1 Introduction

1.1 MEMOplanner

MEMOplanner is a digital calendar with a reminder function.

MEMOplanner helps you remember appointments, structure your day, week, month and

year.

Reminders can be played as sounds, audio messages and/or an SMS.

A timeline, appearing as a light-column or point, indicates the time of day, red for daytime

and blue for night-time.

MEMOplanner has been developed in collaboration with specialists in dementia,

developmental disabilities, acquired brain damage, neuropsychiatry and psychiatry in

Norway, Sweden and Denmark.

MEMOplanner was developed with a grant from Research Council of Norway IT Funk.

MEMOplanner can help make daily life simpler for people with cognitive impairment.

People who have challenges with planning and structuring their day, or who have

memory difficulties, can be greatly aided by MEMOplanner.

1.2 Product description: MEMOplanner

MEMOplanner can be hung on the wall or placed on a table stand.

MEMOplanner can be accessed directly via the touchscreen or via the Internet (remote

Try to find a wall stud behind the plaster wall (by tapping on the wall) near where you

want to place MEMOplanner, and if possible fasten the wall mount to this site using wood

screws. If the bracket must be placed where there is no wall stud behind the plaster, use

a plaster anchor (not included).
