45 45  |RQ007|Alert caretakers|In the event that the system is unable to keep the person with dementia in, a sort of back up plan is required. As the capabilities of the robot are limited and it is unwise to have it accompany or follow the person with dementia, the best option here is to delegate the task to someone that is more capable of such actions and knows the person with dementia well - the care taker. To do this delegation, the system would need some sort of alert or notification it can send to the caretaker.

48 -|RQ005|Associate certain concepts with related concepts|When convincing a person with dementia to stay inside, the system might need to come up with a good argument against whatever action the person with dementia has to go out. In order to provide a good counterargument, the system will need to know what reasons could be used. This means the robot needs some basic understanding of what factors are important in certain behaviours.
49 49  |RQ006|Play music|Music is a powerful tool when dealing with people with dementia. It can help them get in the mood for certain activities through association, as well as subtly bring them back to reality. In order to leverage these positive effects, it would be good for the system to have a way through which it can play music to the people trying to leave.

50 50  |RQ008|Use gestures for non-verbal communication|People with dementia may have problems understanding the system. In order to aid them in this process, it is likely beneficial if the system utilizes gestures to convey its message. This could be simple gestures such as meaningless hand movements to keep the person focussed, to crossing arms to emphasise a "no".
