Tech giant Nvidia backs the AI firm dubbed Synthesia and it recently presents a special avatar creation dubbed Expressive Avatars. The new generation of avatars is able to showcase an entire spectrum of human emotions based on the information that is integrated. The characters can display emotions such as sadness, frustration, happiness, and much more. More importantly, it is able to create nuanced and realistic interactions for users.
Synthesia's technology works by understanding a wide range of video data that is collected from human actors. These actors are performing various emotions whilst standing in front of a green screen. The AI system uses this to learn the nuanced facial expressions and body language that are associated with the emotion. This creates the avatars and allows them to respond to text input emotionally.
