Abstract

An emotional state of a user and one or more images of one or more respective objects observed by the user in an environment using an augmented reality device are received. It is determined whether the one or more objects include at least one negative impact object having a source color that can be changed to improve the emotional state of the user. In response to a determination that the one or more objects include at least one negative impact object having a source color that can be changed to improve the emotional state of the user, the augmented reality device is caused to render the at least one negative impact object with a target color assigned to improve the emotional state of the user.
