After a successful demonstration of digital human technology at a 2019 TED conference, the team at Digital Domain dove headfirst into a daunting task: building a digital character that looks like Doug Roble, their Senior Director of Software R&D, that is fully autonomous and that replicates his behavior. While it’s still a work-in-progress, Digital Domain has released ground-breaking teaser videos of the character online for early review.

This webinar will discuss the challenges of making an autonomous digital doppelganger, including how to replicate a person's voice, expressions, mannerisms, and general behavior. They’ll also explore what they’ve learned about interacting with a digital character, what works and what does not, and the biggest challenges for the future.
