Lightweight version of MUA Home, which required a private booth of about one pyeong ... Bio-signal-based emotion inference and personalized XR meditation content make their debut at the Jeju AI International Film Festival
Corporate mind-care devices are gradually moving away from the assumption that meditation requires a quiet room. Com2uS N unveiled MUAO, a lightweight version of its AI meditation solution MUA, on Sept. 17. The device made its debut at the 2026 Jeju AI International Film Festival & Global Content Forum.
From booth to furniture
The original MUA Home came in the form of a standalone pod. Installation required a separate space of about one pyeong, making adoption more burdensome.
MUAO does away with that structure. It is designed to be placed like furniture in everyday spaces such as a corner of an office, a break room or a lounge. Reducing the space and operational burden required for installation is the model's central aim.
Reading users' states through bio-signals
MUAO uses AI technology to infer emotions from bio-signals. The system reads a user's condition and provides personalized XR meditation content. It also includes a disinfection function for settings where multiple people use the device in rotation.
With MUAO joining its personal app MUA and spatial solution MUA Home, Com2uS N now has a three-pronged product lineup.
Teachers, soldiers, firefighters and athletes
Com2uS N has conducted pilot programs involving teachers, soldiers, firefighters and athletes. The company said the products are already being used by businesses, public institutions and educational institutions.
A company official said, "This event confirmed MUAO's potential for everyday use without a separate dedicated space." The official added, "We plan to expand our product lineup and application areas so MUA can be used in a variety of settings that need mind care, including businesses and public institutions."
Target markets include businesses and public institutions, medical facilities and sports venues.
First validation underway in medical settings
The MUA lineup has also expanded into medical settings this year. On July 24, Com2uS N partnered with Hallym University Kangnam Sacred Heart Hospital to begin a pilot program for MUA Home in a medical setting. The program is aimed at supporting psychological recovery among burn patients and providing psychological recovery programs for people at high risk of post-traumatic stress disorder, including firefighters.
Baek Seung-up, head of Com2uS N's MUA division, said at the time, "This agreement is an important effort to verify the feasibility of applying MUA Home in medical settings. Through cooperation with medical institutions, we will strengthen confidence in the service and continue developing it so more people can use mind-care solutions in their daily lives." Lee Byung-chul, a clinical director in the hospital's department of psychiatry, took part in the partnership.
It will not be possible to assess the device's results in medical settings until the pilot program is complete. Still, the effort stands out because it seeks to evaluate a mind-care device in a clinical environment rather than treating it solely as a consumer product outside hospitals.
Lowering the barrier to dedicated spaces
Devices and services focused on the mental well-being of office workers have grown steadily in recent years. But products that require dedicated spaces have often stalled during the adoption phase, because most offices cannot easily set aside a separate meditation room.
That is the gap MUAO is targeting. If a device can be added to an existing break area instead of requiring the creation of a new space, the barrier to adoption falls significantly.
A device cannot substitute for the depth of meditation. Following one's breath and bringing back a wandering attention ultimately remain the user's responsibility. Technology's role is to address the step before that: shortening the distance to actually beginning a meditation session. If it gives office workers a reason to carve out 10 minutes in the middle of the workday, that alone makes it useful.
