Resumen
This research presents the design and control of a mechatronic
assistant for the treatment with music therapy in dementia patients,
in emphasis on Alzheimer’s disease, through control software im-
plemented in a mechatronic system. The development of research
shows that the proposed mechatronic system detects and records
the behavior of brain waves, through communication in order to
perform some corrective action against a possible unwanted unfore-
seen response during therapy. This communication can be in real
time by communicating via Bluetooth through an application to a
family member or patient manager and regulates the musical style
according to the type of brain wave that best effects the patient
with dementia and additionally, with a cloud record for further
analysis of the improvement and progress of the patient. With this,
the implemented mechatronic assistant will improve the well-being
and quality of life of dementia patients.
