Movement-activated audio devices were placed at the entrance and exit of an exhibition, delivering short welcome and goodbye messages. The sound quality is crude. Although the messages were recorded in the softest voice, the overall effect is more likely to alarm or confuse, which made them suitable for exhibition purposes, but clearly not for the people with dementia for whom they are marketed.
