I like this, but of course the location it points to should be programmable at any time.
Then it's useful for everyone without dementia as well, and a bigger market is better.
For me, this is the perfect motorcycle navigation. In fact, I use an app that turns my smart watch into exactly this product--an arrow pointing to my destination at all times, no other information (distance might be nice though)
Actually, if it's for people with dementia, I think it should have a couple words on it. "Home", an actual arrow, and a distance. Two of those could be static additions, if the designer will allow their minimalism to be sacrificed for the actual goal of the product.
I hadn't seen Beeline, but it looks sweet. I may pick one up.
I always wonder if I'm just buying future ewaste, though. Looks like it requires their app, which requires their live servers. One acquisition away from end-of-lifed.
