Smart in Five works to use technology to improve mind and body as we age.

Our physiological needs are the the most important – food sleep sex sunlight water all the good simple stuff.

As we are aging, our mind and body needs also change. 
We look for tools and devices that help with problems associated with our minds, like dementia, memory loss, or confusion.

We look for tools and devices that help with problems with our bodies, like mobility, hearing, deafness, and sight challenges.  Thinking about the five senses:  Sign (vision), hearing (aduition), taste (gustation), smell (oflaction) and touch (somatosentation).

As we age, our bodies and minds just work differently.  A lot of times we find that something is more challenging to do that it used to be.  It could be tennis because of your shoulder, but it also could be the cross word puzzle.  Sometimes it just doesn’t keep your attention like it used to.
