AI-driven system and methods for personalized virtual medical and spiritual advisor avatars with adaptive therapeutic audio, biometric monitoring, and immersive AR/VR healthcare interfaces
View Patent ↗A computer-implemented system personalizes virtual advisors for immersive healthcare by creating virtual medical and spiritual avatars that resemble trusted authority figures using deepfake technology and multimodal deep neural networks. The virtual medical advisor tailors guidance by analyzing unstructured electronic health record data with natural language processing and BERT-based techniques while adapting its communication based on real-time physiological data from sensors like EEG and photoplethysmography. Concurrently, the virtual spiritual advisor offers faith-based counseling by factoring in user-declared spiritual preferences and sacred text analysis weighted for doctrinal considerations. Additional features include gamification with cryptocurrency tokens or NFTs for health activities, blockchain-based audit trails for HIPAA compliance, and federated learning with differential privacy. The system also employs 3D anatomical simulations to visualize pharmacokinetics and uses adaptive audio treatments in augmented reality with techniques like binaural beats and haptic feedback, all optimized through reinforcement learning based on historical interactions.
