Facial Expressions
Visual reactions synchronized with conversation.
In development
A face that never moves breaks the sense of presence instantly. The facial expression system is intended to keep the character's face expressive and synchronized with the conversation at all times.
How it is intended to work
- Facial animation driven by the conversation
- Lip movement synchronized with speech
- Smiling and warm expressions
- Eyebrow movement for emphasis and reaction
- Eye movement and gaze
- Natural blinking
- Conversational reactions in real time
- Smooth expression transitions
- Speech synchronization
- Context-driven expressions
The intended pipeline

Current status
In development. Expression quality will be iterated extensively during MVP testing.
