PITTSBURGH, Sept. 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- "I wanted to create a new virtual assistant with a friendly and familiar voice/appearance," said an inventor, from Irvine, Calif., "so I invented the I'M STILL HERE. My customizable design would provide a sense of personal interaction, rather than simply talking to a digital voice assistant to request information, provide programming content, or adjust the temperature or lighting in a room."

The patent-granted invention provides a realistic, life-like, three-dimensional image of a person who is no longer alive, but very much missed by a spouse, a child or a friend. With the aid of AI, the "virtual person" would look like and will speak like a person who has passed away. Backed by appropriate software, this invention not only would provide a companion to a bereaved spouse, but it would also help to navigate through challenges of everyday living, such as keeping track of appointments, timely bill payments and coordinating social activities. Additionally, this invention may help to enhance home security and can provide a reassuring "presence" of the owner for a pet frightened when left alone. 

The original design was submitted to the Orange County sales office of InventHelp. It is currently available for licensing or sale to manufacturers or marketers.
