SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PERFORMING A DIAGNOSTIC ANALYSIS OF PHYSIOLOGICAL INFORMATION
First Claim
1. An avatar engine, comprising a controller to:
- retrieve a user profile of a user;
present the user an avatar having characteristics that correlate to the user profile;
detect one or more responses of the user during a communication exchange between the user and the avatar;
identify from the one or more responses a need to determine a medical status of the user;
establish communications with a medical diagnostic system;
receive physiological information associated with the user;
submit the physiological information to the medical diagnostic system;
receive from the medical diagnostic system a diagnostic analysis of the physiological information; and
present the diagnostic analysis to at least one of the user and a medical agent of the user, wherein the user is presented the diagnostic analysis by way of the avatar.
