Pregnancy is a journey filled with emotions, sensations, and connections—yet these experiences are often felt in isolation. Our project, CoFeel, seeks to bridge this gap.

The problem

Pregnancy Is Felt in Isolation

Pregnancy brings intense physical and emotional changes—but often, these experiences are invisible to loved ones. This emotional gap can increase anxiety and leave expectant mothers feeling alone, even with strong support systems

CoFeel is an immersive VR experience that lets partners and family feel pregnancy together. By translating real fetal movements and emotional states into a shared virtual environment, CoFeel makes pregnancy a multisensory, participatory experience rather than a solitary one

We used EMG sensors on the abdomen to detect fetal movements and EEG sensors on the frontal and occipital lobes to monitor emotional states. These signals form the bridge between the pregnant individual’s inner experience and the shared virtual world

Our approach enables adaptive interfaces through conversational feedback. Users can directly express what they want to track or explore.

By entering their goal or question into a prompt input box, the system performs intent tagging to categorize the query and automatically surfaces the most relevant UI components.

Step 1: Intent Tagging: Understanding the ask

On interpreting the user input side, I defined 5 parameters to tag a questions.

During the user interview, I asked each interviewee: " If you can ask the galaxy page any question, what would you ask?" and looked for recurring patterns in what they were fundamentally asking for.

While an LLM could infer UI responses directly, defining a parameter tagging framework adds a structured, interpretable layer between user intent and system response. Putting LLM on rails as oppose to letting it range free.

Step 2: UI Matching: How to Answer with Different UI Components

On the system output side, for each of the potential intent, I have a set of corresponding UI components to answer.

During the process of brainstorming how to leverage the power of LLM to empower better search, I talked to a start up company called glean, which provides a software that combines all source of information across platforms and domain and fuse them into smart search that's specific to the company.
