Blue Tea
In the VIBE project, BlueTea is a software solution partner. We are creators of simulation training software and we use our knowledge in this project to make the VIBE avatar come to life. The avatar is a complex 3D model which is created by BUAS. It has a lot of features that make it behave like an actual human. To drive these features, many software modules (like a module for speech, emotion, idle movement etc.), are needed to work together. BlueTea integrates these modules in a software architecture and connects these to the 3D avatar. In this process, BlueTea works closely together with BUAS to understand the animation possibilities of the avatar and we learn about human behaviour from the university of Tilburg. We see a lot is happening in the world of 3D animations in combination with lifelike avatars. It is a fast expanding and interesting field of expertise.
