We have already developed an embodied virtual communication system for human interaction analysis by synthesis. This system provides two remote talkers with a communication environment in which embodied interaction is shared by VirtualActors including the talkers themselves through a virtual face-to-face scene. We confirmed the importance of embodied sharing in embodied communication by using the...
In this study, we develop the embodied virtual communication system with the speech-driven nodding response model for the analysis by synthesis of embodied communication. Using the proposed system in embodied virtual communication, we perform experiments and carry out sensory evaluation and voice-motion analysis to demonstrate the effects of nodding responses on a talker's avatar called VirtualActor...
In this paper, we demonstrate the effectiveness of a virtual arm wrestling system with virtual human and a 5-DOF force display system for the analysis by synthesis of force display communication characteristics by the strategies of force. First, we propose a force display response model on the basis of the dynamic analysis of force display which pushes back a subject's power under a quantitative load...
In this paper, we demonstrate the effects of the affect display of anger by virtual facial image synthesis with facial color enhancement and expression on the basis of the analysis of facial color under the emotional change of anger. First, we examine the relationship between the change in the facial color and the physiological index of facial skin temperature, which indicates the change in the blood...
Many shared-space communication systems have been proposed which support bodily actions, such as eye gaze and instruction, among remote people. However, the method to share a three-dimensional bodily action in physical space with remote people has not been explored sufficiently. In this paper, we propose a novel method of a shared-space communication to support to bridge over remote two tabletops...
The concept of a virtual arm wrestling system for force display communication analysis is proposed. The prototype system of a 5-DOF force display system with 4 air cylinders and a force sensor is developed for the affect display and interaction of virtual human on the basis of human nonverbal behavior and physiological measurement in arm wrestling. By using the system, the relations between force...
An arm wrestling system using a 4-DOF force display with virtual human is developed for the affect display of facial color and expression, aiming for the application to training and rehabilitation support. In this paper, by the simultaneous measurement of facial skin temperature and facial color images, the dynamic change of facial color and expression are analyzed under static force display based...
