AI Edge
Audio2Face leverages the power of deep neural networks to analyze audio input and drive the vertices of a 3D character mesh to create realistic facial animations in real-time. The AI network also automatically manipulates the character’s emotions based on an inferred emotional range from the audio clip. Additionally, Omniverse Audio2Face supports blendshape conversion for Blender and Epic Games Unreal Engine, making it easier for developers to generate motion for characters using their respective Omniverse Connectors.
