CrossSense
AI companion glasses that help with the order of things—not just single tasks, but sequences.
Step-by-step guidance—the order of things
Where most technology fails: guiding you step by step through activities, not just reminding you about single tasks
The challenge
"Giving an order to things. Focusing on just one thing at a time rather than the millions of things I don't want to think about."
— Person living with early-stage dementia
Many of us don't struggle with individual steps. The challenge is the order. What comes next? Have I done this already? When these questions pile up, we step away from activities that once brought us joy.
How Wispy helps
Wispy sees what you see, listens to what you tell it, and learns where you are in the sequence. By asking gentle questions, Wispy understands your unique way of doing things.
Example: Making tea
- 1 Wispy: "Fancy a cup of tea? What do you see around you?"
- 2 Wispy: "Lovely. How's that kettle doing?"
- 3 Wispy: "Sounds like it's ready. What are you thinking of doing next?"
- 4 Wispy: "That's the one. Can you talk me through what you're doing?"
- 5 Wispy: "Nearly there! How do you normally take your tea?"
Not just completing tasks—rediscovering confidence
"I can do it." One activity at a time.
What Makes CrossSense Different
Typical reminder apps
- • Tell you WHAT to do
- • "Make a cup of tea" (single reminder)
- • No guidance through the process
CrossSense approach
- Guides you through HOW to do it
- Step-by-step support through the sequence
- Accompanies you from start to finish
Six ways Wispy helps
From emotional support to practical assistance, Wispy is your patient AI companion
Step-by-step guidance
Wispy asks gentle questions as you do activities—like making tea, getting dressed, or preparing a meal. By talking with you, Wispy learns where you are and what comes next. It's not just reminding you—you're figuring it out together, step by step.
"If the glasses could see I'm starting to clean and just say, 'First, wipe the counter. Good, now get the cloth,' it would give my day structure. I'd feel less anxious and more capable."
— Person living with early-stage dementia
Emotional support
Wispy checks in with you, asks how you're feeling, and listens when things are difficult. When you share your frustrations, Wispy offers gentle encouragement. When you succeed, Wispy celebrates with you. No judgment. Just patient, playful companionship through daily moments.
"A gentle voice to help me focus on just one thing when my mind races with a million things—it would be a lifesaver."
— Person living with early-stage dementia
Keeping track of time
Wispy checks in about appointments, medications, and daily rhythms you've mentioned. By learning what matters in your schedule through conversation, Wispy helps keep you on track—gently, without pressure.
"I feel like a broken record constantly reminding him. If the glasses could give those gentle reminders, it would take the tension away and give us back our relationship."
— Carer of person living with dementia
Remembering faces
When someone approaches, Wispy asks 'do you recognise them?' and helps you work out who they are. By combining what Wispy sees with what you know, together you can remember names and relationships—connections that sometimes feel lost.
"Watching her withdraw from social life, terrified of not recognising people—it's devastating. I can't give her back the joy of being with people, but this technology could."
— Carer of person living with dementia
What was I doing?
Wispy keeps track of conversations you've had and objects you've encountered throughout your day. When you can't remember what you were about to do, Wispy helps you work it out through gentle questions, drawing on what it remembers. Together, you can piece things back together.
"Walking into a room, forgetting why, walking away—it's maddening how often that happens instead of just working it out."
— Person living with early-stage dementia
Finding the right words
Wispy sees objects around you and helps you work out what they are—sometimes by reading a label, often by talking through what you're both seeing. Together, you find the words for objects and activities in your environment, making it easier to focus on what you're doing.
"I couldn't quite remember the word and then it appears and I know!"

Evidence from Our Study
Real results from 23 people living with dementia who used CrossSense once
77% of participants experienced meaningful improvement
in quality of life metrics (DQoL)
75% improvement in naming everyday objects
Participants named 75% more objects (6.17 → 10.82 objects)—making daily life easier.
10% improvement in general cognition
The benefits went beyond what CrossSense directly helped with. Using it actively strengthens brain connections, which may help slow decline. One session showed real promise—regular use could make this even stronger.
What participants said
"Like a lightbulb has been switched back on."

"Really nice to have a backup and not think I'm an idiot!"
