N2 - While demand for personality-endowed AI agents continues to grow, current research on AI agent personalization focuses primarily on linguistic or limited anthropomorphic features. In this paper, we proposed the concept of transforming everyday objects into personalized AI agents base on mixed reality interfaces. Through a formative study, we identified four design requirements around AI agent personalization and dialogue content. We developed the MyAIPal prototype system, which enables users to interact with AI agents of personalized everyday objects through voice dialogue and natural behaviors. Preliminary evaluations indicated that users have positive attitudes and that our system demonstrated good usability, personality expression, and intelligence. We further discussed how to improve multi-modal feedback, supporting user customization, and addressing ethical considerations can enhance the experience of personalized everyday object AI agents.
