Alzheimer’s patients can sometimes wander away and become disoriented. For patients at risk of getting lost, these shoes have a built-in GPS receiver and a data transmitter in the sole (indicated in red), allowing the wearer’s location to be tracked. The shoes are charged via a USB connection in the heel.
