Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) systems must provide adapted services easily accessible by a wide variety of users. This can only be possible if the communication between the user and the system is carried out through an interface that is simple, rapid, effective, and robust. Natural language interfaces such as mobile multimodal conversational agents fulfill these requisites, as they can emulate communication capabilities of a human being including several communication modalities, such as speech, tactile and visual interaction. In this paper, we present a multimodal application for Android mobile devices aimed to patients suffering from Alzheimer. This application helps them to enhance their memory and to stimulate their cognitive abilities.
