  • Publication number: 20250127445
    Abstract: A system for remotely determining the potential presence of depression in a user. The system includes a virtual agent that administers one or more tasks to the user. The user performs the tasks and the performance is captured by a camera. The captured audiovisual data is sent to a server that derives objective metrics which are then applied to a classifying algorithm. If certain metrics meet certain thresholds, the system determines that the user is exhibiting depression symptoms. In embodiments, the system can further determine whether a user has been taking depression medication.
