Prospects of Digital Human Research
Digital humans are expected to replace humans in completing many tasks that humans cannot, such as weightlessness in the universe, high-altitude and oxygen deficient areas, and areas where long-term residency is inconvenient. And complete experiments on car collision protection, nuclear protection, biochemical protection, and biological weapon protection that can cause damage to real people.
Digital Human Technology Framework
The framework of a digital human system generally consists of five core modules: character image, speech generation, animation generation, audio and video synthesis and display, and interaction, forming the "five horizontal system" of digital human construction.
Interaction module
The interaction module is an extensible item, and virtual humans can be divided into interactive virtual humans and non interactive virtual humans based on whether they have an interaction module. Interactive virtual humans can be further divided into intelligent driven virtual humans and human driven virtual humans based on their driving methods.
Key technology
The core key technologies in the process of creating virtual humans should focus on modeling, driving, rendering, and artificial intelligence. It determines the aesthetic appeal of the external image of the virtual person, the smoothness of their movements, the naturalness of their interactions, and the level of their intelligence.
Application scenarios of digital humans
With the rapid development of virtual digital human theory and technology, its application scope is constantly expanding, the industry is gradually forming, and business models are undergoing continuous evolution and diversification.
Service organizations
The penetration speed of digital humans in finance, healthcare, government and other scenarios is relatively fast, including online platforms used by digital humans in medical institutions to help patients make appointments with doctors, provide health advice, assist customers in completing account inquiries, investment advice and other work in banks and financial institutions, provide online application services in government services, and provide relevant government plans and policy information to citizens.
Digital human, film, television, and media organizations
The application of digital humans in the fields of virtual idols, e-commerce live streaming, short videos, news variety shows, and other film and television media has accelerated the incubation of virtual IP, expanded creative boundaries, and reduced production costs, providing more possibilities for improving visual and interactive effects.
Digital human brand commercial organizations
Digital humans also have a wide range of applications in the field of branding, mainly playing service roles such as brand ambassadors, customer service and support, virtual store employees, and brand marketing. With the continuous advancement of technology, the innovative application of digital humans in the field of branding will continue to increase.
Digital Humanities Tourism/Educational Organizations
In the cultural and tourism industry, virtual digital humans serve the cultural and tourism industries with different identities, mainly including cultural and tourism IPs, image spokespersons, travel guides, virtual anchors, etc.
In the education industry, digital humans can provide personalized learning support and guidance for students, and help companies simulate specific vocational training scenarios, train employees, and reduce training costs.
