Abstract
SnuggleTron represents a groundbreaking innovation in the realm of mental health support. In response to the escalating challenges surrounding mental health assistance, SnuggleTron offers a transformative solution. This robotic companion integrates smart technology and empathetic design to provide immediate and non-judgmental support to individuals facing mental health challenges. The problem statement addressed by SnuggleTron is the lack of accessible and stigma-free mental health resources, which often hinder individuals from seeking help. The objectives of SnuggleTron are twofold: to reduce feelings of loneliness and to bridge the gap between individuals and mental health support services. The novelty of SnuggleTron lies in its unique approach, departing from conventional methods by offering a non-human alternative that is approachable and available anytime, anywhere. Its impact and usefulness are evident in its ability to engage in meaningful conversations, provide emotional support, and offer guidance on coping strategies and professional assistance conclusion, SnuggleTron serves as a beacon of hope in destigmatizing mental health discussions and promoting holistic well-being.
