Digital people, whom we are accustomed to from the world of science fiction themed films, are included in our lives with artificial intelligence technologies. Japanese telecommunications company KDDI has created a virtual assistant.
KDDI’s digital human service, which can be seen on smartphone screens with augmented reality technology, will appear as the ‘Digital Human as a Service’ (DHaaS) project and will be launched very soon.
“Real-time digital assistant”
The rapidly developing artificial intelligence technology continues to push the limits of the universe. The Japanese telecommunications company KDDI and a technology company called Mawari also announced a project that will attract attention, especially these days when Metraverse is often talked about. Combining KDDI’s 5G network, Amazon’s low-latency AWS computing technology, and a Mawari proprietary codec, the app will launch later this month.
Users will be able to access the digital human service by paying monthly, quarterly or annually. The company will also publish the “digital human use” guide for users very soon. Those who use this service will have a digital assistant that will be displayed in Metaverse. The digital person, who will appear in the position viewed by the mobile phone camera, will serve as an assistant to the users.
Although the new technology brings to mind the augmented reality game Pokemon Go, which was developed a few years ago, when the applications are examined, it is seen that it has a fundamentally different structure. The digital human service works simultaneously with the data it receives from the phone camera, instead of working from the memory of the phone as in Pokemon GO. .
