24 In this use case we will focus on a private residential center for elderly with Dementia situated in The Hague called Martha Flora. This is a big villa in a calm and green environment where a lot of personal care is given to every resident. Because it is rather expensive and there are not a lot of residents they are open to experimenting with new care methods.
