Cantoch : Living Actor

Living Actor™ is a software suite that allows you to create, personalize, and generate scenes for all types of avatars on all software platforms that are fixed or mobile. Thanks to different export formats, Living Actor™ works on every kind of applications.

The system is based on the speech-to-animation engine. The speech-to-animation engine is a proprietary audio analysis technology, independent of the linguistic content, which analyzes audio signal (recorded or streamed) and identifies sound volume, pace of the speech, prosody, emotions, and others parameters.

These features are compared with the characteristics associated with the virtual character’s animation data and the best behaviors and actions are automatically generated using several artificial intelligence techniques to realize the speech visualization by full-body avatars.

1. Artificial Intelligence - Artificial intelligence (AI) is intelligence demonstrated by machines, as opposed to the natural intelligence displayed by animals and humans.
