Facial Recognition
I was just thinking the other day how great it would be for dementia people to have a facial/object recognition app that would tell you peoples' names and relationships to you and such. I thought you might have something on your CES list (since CES "products" are many times just "ideas"/prototypes.)
Did a search and came up with http://www.nametag.ws/ - the NameTag app, which is facial recognition. Now, we just need Google Glasses and a smart phone for every older adult.
P.S. It would also be good for business people who meet myraids of people.
the "who am I looking at" app
I recommend keeping an eye out for www.firstpersonvision.com if you want a Google GLASS + NameTag app solution. They have technology showcased to do "essentially" the same thing you are talking about, and they were at CES two years ago.
As they say....
If you can't say something nice...don't say it at all.
