  • Abstract
    We have created a virtual human presenter who accepts speech texts with embedded commands as inputs. The presenter acts in real-time 3D animation synchronized with speech. The system was developed on the Jack animated-agent system. Jack provides a 3D graphical environment for controlling articulated figures, including detailed human models
