Paper Abstract:
|
We have already analyzed human eyeball movement through avatars using an embodied virtual communication system with a line-of-sight measurement device. We proposed an eyeball movement model consisting of an eyeball delay movement model and a gaze withdrawal model. In this paper, we develop an advanced avatar-mediated communication system in which the proposed eyeball movement model is applied to speech-driven embodied entrainment characters called InterActors. The communication system generates eyeball movement on the basis of the developed model, and also generates the entrained head and body motions of InterActors using only speech input. The effectiveness of the proposed eyeball movement model and communication system is demonstrated by means of sensory evaluations. |
