Mood Mirror
Class
Digital Video Production
For my final project, I wanted to find a way to incorporate the future of video with a concern for mental health. Thus, I came up with the concept of a mood mirror. The Mood Mirror is a mirror designed to help you confront your mental health, heal, and learn to be your best friend through introducing ways to cope with depression or anxiety by confronting our biggest frenemy: ourselves. Having the form be a mirror is accessible and tangible, as one does not have to go further than their bathroom to be able to interact with the technology. This also heightens the personalization aspect of the mirror for the user. The mirror recognizes facial expression and visual social cues to detect your mood and project video or audio back to you in a series of abstract images, meditation exercises, or decompressing while doing your makeup in space. These images are derived from AI technology and user collaboration. The Mood Mirror has a plethora of features to help you find the light even on your darkest days, and enjoy the time you spend with yourself.
