Abstract
The storage capacity of computers is growing rapidly and computers are being used for various purposes, such as taking memos, reading books, and storing photos. They are used to stimulate human memories as shown in the study of enhanced memory. As it is troublesome to handle physical books, they are easy to be hoarded. But by showing the data as slide shows, it is easy to see various data with little effort and it enables us to remind many things.
Computers can be powerful tools that help people to remember things. In this paper, studies of enhanced memories are reviewed and the experience of living in a “Remembrance Home”, which has more than eight hundred thousand digital images in it and which has been designed by the author, is described.
