Abstract

The growing demand for intelligent automation has led to the rapid development of AI-powered assistants. However, these assistants have been limited to voice communication and working on a 2D screen. This paper introduces VISTA.AI, a type of AI-powered assistive technology that uses voice commands for desktop operations and designs hologram-ready visuals. The proposed system records voice commands through a microphone and processes them using natural language processing (NLP). The interpreted commands are then used to perform operating-system-level tasks. The model is designed using Blender-based modelling to generate extrusions and depth mapping, creating 2D visuals such as text, graphs, and icons projected as 3D hologram-ready images using a Pepper's Ghost setup. The experimental evaluation under controlled lighting conditions reveals high recognition accuracy, efficient automation of OS, and good-quality holographic outputs. VISTA.AI integrates multimodal interactions with OS-level control and low-cost holographic projection, significantly enhancing the capabilities of traditional AI assistants. Its modular architecture will allow gesture-based control, volumetric holography, integration into smart environments, and compatibility with AR/VR to be added in the future.
