Lynda Character 1.0

Animations that denote speech capabilities means a special set of speech animations (mouth movements) was also created to coincide with that animation. Each speech animation set has 7 different mouth movements to emulate the most common phonemes. Characters are compiled digital software that include these animations but DO NOT operate by themselves. A characters animations are generated by the Microsoft Agent Core Components. Third party MS Agent applications such as CyberBuddy makes use of these animations and core components to operate and make a character active. The amount of activity and when and what animations are used will mostly depend on the application you are using to operate your character, most of these applications do allow a certain amount of user interaction so make sure to throughly read the documentation and help that came with the application you are using to get the most out of your character.
