摘要：In recent years, the aging of theworld's population has been increasing year by year. As people age, the human brain is prone to aging and damage, and basic abilities such as thinking, language, and execution will also decline. The deterioration of these links may lead to cognitive decline, resulting in mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Alzheimer's disease (AD), a common geriatric disease, is a manifestation of cognitive impairment. Alzheimer's disease will have irreversible negative effects on the daily life, economy, and psychology of the elderly and their families. This study combines serious game theory with augmented reality technology. The elderly play serious games in their daily lives to exercise common cognitive activities. In addition, augmented reality technology can effectively connect the virtual game world With real-world life scenes. Through augmented reality games, the elderly can be enrichedwith visual and auditory multi-sensory training, and the elderly with mild cognitive impairment can be detected and intervened in a timely manner. Combining AR technology with tangible objects maximizes the effectiveness of training through more accessible game participation channels and contextualized and fun game experiences. The ultimate aim of this study is to design and develop a serious mobile phone game to help the elderly exercise their cognitive abilities such as object recognition, sense of direction, and way finding in daily life. This study can provide early detection and intervention for the elderly's cognitive impairment, so as to avoid the irreversible impact of diseases such as dementia on the lives of the elderly and their families.
