## Abstract

Methods and systems are used for providing a traveling avatar in a smart feedback system (SFS). As an example, a user associated with a first interaction with the SFS from a first device at a first location is identified. A first visualization of a personalized avatar associated with the user is provided to the first device. A first personalized feedback request is provided to the first device during the first visualization. First feedback of the user captured by the first device is received in response to the first personalized feedback request. The user associated with a second interaction with the SFS from a second device at the first location is identified. A second visualization of the personalized avatar is provided to the second device. A second personalized feedback request is provided to the second device. Second feedback of the user captured by the second device is received.

providing a second recommendation to the second device during the second visualization of the personalized avatar is based on the user profile and an analysis of the second feedback of the user captured by the second device.

### Claim 8

A computer-implemented method, the method being executed by at least one processor associated with a smart feedback system (SFS), wherein the SFS stores a plurality of user profiles, wherein each user profile is associated with a corresponding user and a corresponding personalized avatar, the method comprising:
identifying a user of a plurality of users associated with a first interaction with the SFS from a first device at a first location remote from the SFS;
providing a first visualization of a personalized avatar associated with the user to the first device based on a user profile associated with the user;
providing a first personalized feedback request to the first device during the first visualization of the personalized avatar, wherein the first personalized feedback request includes a first set of feedback requests associated with a first offer associated with a first participant of a plurality of participants;
receiving first feedback of the user captured by the first device in response to the first personalized feedback request and associating the first feedback with the user profile;
identifying the user associated with a second interaction with the SFS from a second device at a second location different from the first location and remote from the SFS;
providing a second visualization of the personalized avatar to the second device;
providing a second personalized feedback request to the second device during the second visualization of the personalized avatar, wherein the second personalized feedback request includes a second set of feedback requests associated with a second offer associated with a second participant of the plurality of participants; and
