[Special Stock] Selvas AI Aims to Unveil World's First Real-Time Interactive Digital Human... First Metaverse Project

[Asia Economy Reporter Hyungsoo Park] The stock price of AI development company Selvas AI is on the rise. The news that it is actively targeting the related market through its first metaverse project, ‘Real-time Interaction Digital Human,’ appears to have influenced the stock price. Selvas AI is commercializing its business through cooperation with various metaverse service companies, starting with Fingereyes.

A Selvas AI official said, “Since last year, based on our existing technology, we have been developing ‘Digital Humans’ capable of real-time response and communication through real-time rendering, in addition to existing 2D, 3D models and brand voices,” adding, “We aim to unveil it to the world for the first time.” He continued, “Once development is successfully completed, the growth speed of the metaverse business will accelerate even more.”

As of 9:28 a.m. on the 16th, Selvas AI is trading at 7,530 KRW, up 10.41% from the previous day.

On the same day, Selvas AI announced that it had signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) for ‘Metaverse Platform Business Cooperation’ with metaverse platform company Fingereyes. Fingereyes is developing a multi-platform metaverse platform applying technologies such as virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), extended reality (XR), and mixed reality (MR), based on its experience in MMORPG development and service.

To fully launch its metaverse business, Selvas AI established a ‘Metaverse Lab’ based on voice technology. Leveraging over 22 years of accumulated AI-based deep learning technology, voice recognition, and voice synthesis expertise and know-how, it is pushing forward with the country’s first project to create ‘Digital Humans’ capable of real-time interaction.

Digital Humans enable realistic real-time communication within the metaverse, beyond 2D, 3D models and brand voices. Essential elements in the metaverse include ▲ultra-realistic real-time communication with digital humans ▲facial expressions synchronized with the voice of 3D digital humans ▲and lip movements speaking the voice generated by voice synthesis technology, implemented as closely as possible to human likeness.

Until now, most digital humans have been one-way IP-centered with almost no two-way communication, but it is expected that real-time two-way communication will become an essential condition for digital humans within the metaverse. Selvas AI aims to develop ‘Human Like Technology’ based on its HCI (Human Computer Interaction) technologies such as voice recognition, voice synthesis, and natural language processing.
