A system for remote servicing of customers includes an interactive display unit at the customer location providing two-way audio/visual communication with a remote service/sales agent, wherein communication inputted by the agent is delivered to customers via a virtual Digital Actor on the display. The system also provides for remote customer service using physical mannequins with interactive capability having two-way audio visual communication ability with the remote agent, wherein communication inputted by the remote service or sales agent is delivered to customers using the physical mannequin. A web solution integrates the virtual Digital Actor system into a business website. A smart phone solution provides the remote service to customers via an App. In another embodiment, the Digital Actor is instead displayed as a 3D hologram. The Digital Actor is also used in an e-learning solution, in a movie studio suite, and as a presenter on TV, online, or other broadcasting applications.

This disclosure relates generally to human-machine interaction. In one embodiment, an interaction device for providing the interaction between the user and the ECA is disclosed. The interaction device comprises a processor and a memory communicatively coupled to the processor. The memory stores processor instructions, which, on execution, causes the processor to receive conversation data of a user interacting with the ECA, wherein the ECA is presented on an interface of the interaction device. The processor further determines an emotional state of the user based on one or more behavioral parameters associated with the conversation data of the user. The processor identifies a response state for the ECA corresponding to the emotional state of the user, wherein the response state is identified from a plurality of response states based on a pre-defined probability for each response state. The processor further transitions behavior of the ECA based on the response state.

Apparatus transmits an identifier for association with a virtual area by an administering network service, generates output data from human perceptible stimulus in a physical space, transmits the output data in connection with the virtual area, receives input data associated with the virtual area, and generates human perceptible stimulus in the physical space from the input data. A persistent association is created between the apparatus and a virtual area. A respective presence is established in the virtual area for a communicant operating a client network node connected to the virtual area. A respective connection between each active pair of complementary sources and sinks of the client network node and the apparatus are administered in association with the virtual area. A client network node displays a graphical user interface, establishes the administered connections, and presents interaction controls associated with the object for interacting with communicants in the physical space.

An information processing method and device, and an apparatus used for a terminal with multiple operation systems include: according to the content of information received in the current operation system, the type of the information is determined; according to the type of the information, the operation system for processing the information is determined, and the information is processed by the operation system. The current operation system can determine the operation system for processing the information according to the content and the type of the information received by a terminal.

A system for generating an expandable pool of virtual agents to provide solutions in a virtual environment comprises a call center server in communication with a metaverse server. The call center server generates the virtual agents with corresponding skills of each real-world agent using a machine learning model based on historical observation operations performed by each particular real-world agent and a historical rule set to address the service issue. The metaverse server identifies the virtual agents in the virtual environment. The call center server routes a service inquiry with a service issue from a user equipment of a user to the metaverse server when determining that a particular real-world agent is not available. The metaverse server identifies a first virtual agent with a first skill and conducts a first interaction between the first virtual agent and a user avatar to generate the customized solution to address the service issue.

A computing system displays, via a first display generation component, a computer-generated environment, and concurrently displays status information corresponding to the computing system via the second display generation component, including concurrently displaying: a visual representation of a portion of a user of the computing system who is in a position to view the computer-generated environment via the first display generation component, and one or more graphical elements that provide a visual indication of content in the computer-generated environment. The computing system detects a respective event; and in response, the computing system changes a level of immersion of the computer-generated environment displayed via the first display generation component, and changes the status information that is displayed via the second display generation component, including changing an appearance of the visual representation of the portion of the user of the computing system.
