Selvas AI Collaborates with FingerEyes on Metaverse... "Conducting 'Real-time Digital Human Project'"

[Asia Economy Reporter Yoo Hyun-seok] AI specialist company Selvas AI is actively targeting the related market through its first Metaverse project, ‘Real-time Interaction Digital Human’.

Selvas AI announced on the 16th that it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for ‘Metaverse Platform Business Cooperation’ with FingerEyes, a metaverse platform specialist company. Based on its experience in MMORPG development and service, FingerEyes is developing a metaverse platform for multi-platforms applying technologies such as VR, AR, XR, and MR.

To fully launch its metaverse business, Selvas AI established a ‘Metaverse Lab’ based on voice technology. Leveraging over 22 years of accumulated AI-based deep learning technology, voice recognition, and speech synthesis expertise and know-how, the company is pushing forward with Korea’s first project to create a ‘Digital Human’ capable of real-time interaction.

The ‘Digital Human’ enables ultra-realistic real-time communication not only with 2D and 3D models and Brand Voice within the metaverse but also with highly realistic interaction. In particular, the company plans to implement the following essential metaverse elements: ▲ ultra-realistic real-time communication with digital humans ▲ synchronized facial expressions with the voice of 3D digital humans ▲ lip movements speaking the voice generated by speech synthesis technology as closely resembling humans as possible.

The company expects that most digital humans currently mentioned in the market are primarily one-way IP-centered with almost no two-way communication, but the essential condition for digital humans in the metaverse will be real-time two-way communication. Selvas AI aims to develop ‘Human Like Technology’ based on its HCI (Human Computer Interaction) technologies such as voice recognition, speech synthesis, and natural language processing.

A Selvas AI official stated, “Since last year, based on our technology, we have been developing ‘Digital Humans’ capable of real-time response and communication through real-time rendering, in addition to existing 2D, 3D models and Brand Voice,” adding, “We aim for a world-first unveiling, and if this development is successfully completed, our metaverse business growth is expected to accelerate further.”
