Juri - An Artificial Intelligence
Improving Well-Being in the Long Term With AI-Supported Self-Reflection
Description
Juri is a tailored AI solution that enhances individual well-being, dissolves creative blocks, and fosters self-understanding. This innovative AI technology provides interactive reflection sessions with 360-degree projections and hologram visualizations, paving the way for a more conscious and fulfilling life.
Relevance
The question "How do you feel?" is often overlooked in our fast-paced world. Juri creates a customized comfort space, helping users to better understand themselves, resolve creative blocks, and enhance their well-being.
Objective of this Project
In a world that is changing more rapidly than ever, the need for individuals to engage in self-reflection is undeniable. The real question lies in how and by what means this can be facilitated. This is precisely where Juri comes into play: With the development of this application, a concept has been established that makes reflection accessible to everyone, streamlining the process of self-reflection to be as straightforward and intuitive as possible.
The Artificial Intelligence Juri
Juri is an AI that can integrate into any home. It interacts with users as if it were a human conversation partner. Depending on the user's mood, Juri expresses empathy and emotions through its visualized eyes. Additionally, Juri automatically adjusts the colors of its "body," though users can also personally customize the AI's color scheme.
Dynamics
The AI seamlessly adapts to the user's mood.
Hologram
An anthropo-morphic AI representation and interaction.
Projection
The entire room is adorned with calming images & lighting effects.
Product Structure
Juri consists of two main components: a transparent sphere and a special holder. Inside the sphere, Juri appears as a fascinating hologram, seemingly floating in mid-air, enriching user interaction visually. The holder contains advanced 360-degree projectors, filling the room with atmospheric projections. Integrated speakers provide an interactive and immersive experience.
Self-Reflection with Juri
The application spans the period before an actual diagnosis or therapy begins. Typically, the user experience involves comfortably sitting in front of 'Juri' in a living room or any other tranquil space where the user feels relaxed and undistracted. During a session, Juri assists the user through a dialogic process that fosters self-reflection. Through interactive conversations and iterative feedback loops, the AI continually learns and adapts, ensuring increasingly personalized and meaningful interactions.
Challenge
The application is designed from the ground up for regular sessions to address the challenge that many people do not take the time for regular reflection. The daily use of Juri is designed to be easily integrated into everyday life and maintained without the need for extraordinary discipline. During use, users should feel that they are gaining time, not losing it.
Outlook
With the first prototype, a phase of iterative testing begins. The design language, color effects, and animations have already been tested, but simultaneous testing of sound is yet to be conducted. Quantitative testing with a broad user base and subsequent qualitative testing will provide deep insights into why something works well or not.
User Experience
The design of Juri integrates visual, auditory and interactive elements into a comprehensive experience.
Affable Communication
Special attention was paid to the design of Juri's animated hologram, particularly its facial expressions. It is designed to create a friendly impression and communicate a wide array of human emotions.

The Features
3D Hologram
An animated hologram representation of Juri is housed in a sphere, which forms the centerpiece of the system.
360° Projection
High-quality lenses in the holder project images onto all walls and the ceiling, with furniture pieces enhancing the depth of the projections.
360° Sound
Integrated speakers in the holder offer an immersive sound experience, immersing users in an acoustic environment.
Linkage with Vitals
Juri analyzes tonality data and vital statistics to gain a deep understanding of the user's emotional state, supported by modern networking and data analysis.
Simple Interaction
Easy voice and gesture controls enable intuitive interaction with Juri. Users can comfortably choose which to use according to their preference.
Add-On Features
The removable sphere serves as a tactile object and interactive element, while a smart home interface allows for integration into the domestic environment.
Individual AI Customization for Users
December 13, 2022
Training the AI model for future development poses a technical challenge. Early user tests revealed that unlike conventional interfaces, users deem personalized interaction options and a tailored atmosphere as crucial.
Designing Invisible Support
November 30, 2022
The design should minimally distract the user, create a pleasant atmosphere, and simultaneously provide prompts to enable access to deeper underlying thoughts.
Challenge of Creative Interpretation
November 22, 2022
The project's complexity stems from determining to what extent AI can understand human thoughts, especially when individuals struggle to process and interpret their own experiences and thoughts.
