Résumé des résultats (Abstract) (Anglais)

Older adults continuously risk dehydration (due to reduced thirst sensation, cognitive decline, and medication effects) which can have serious consequences. We study the feasibility of a new SmartCup with gamified features designed for older adults to promote adequate and steady daily fluid intake.
