Mental Health Project

School Project
As mental health became a paramount issue in our society, my team and I decided that we should target loneliness aspect of the mental health issues. 

As Singaporean youth, we are mostly preoccupied with schoolwork and extracurricular activities. We discover that it is difficult to find a trustworthy partner with whom we can rant or discuss our problem. As a result, we find it difficult to confide in them about our problems.

We proposed a 24/7 chat buddy using emerging technology to provide a forum for users to discuss their feelings or problems. Such a discussion could be facilitated by Artificial Intelligence or a certified counsellor. Furthermore, with our certified counsellor, it creates a more accessible platform for users to seek medical assistance. Users can also customize their "talking space" with our Augmented Reality. All these creates a safe space for users to utilise our proposed solution.
