Our Services

01Virtual Human Solution

AI technology is evolving at a rapid pace, and a variety of applications are being developed to meet the diverse needs of business. By applying the AI-based speech synthesis and motion generation technologies it has cultivated over the years, rinna has launched a virtual human video creation solution that enables users to create videos in which an avatar of a person speaks and moves naturally, simply by inputting text. The solution is based on voice synthesis and motion generation technologies using AI that have been cultivated so far.

This solution will utilize rinna's AI technology and virtual human solution that turns CG models that imitate real people into moving images. The model person is photographed in a dedicated studio and his or her voice is recorded to create character data. Based on this data, a virtual human is generated that expresses speech with natural intonation in accordance with emotion, as well as movements and changes in facial expressions during speech in real time.

Once created, virtual humans can easily create their own videos that suit their desired situations by loading text data into a dedicated video creation tool. No special equipment, knowledge, or skills are required.
