Sweet-Talk
Spring 2017
Team SweetTalk is exploring the use of voice interaction in virtual reality. Given the platform’s currently limited interaction options, this Silicon Valley-based team will explore how we can craft novel experiences in VR that afford deeper immersion and character relationships as a result of this unconventional interface. By using devices such as Amazon Echo or Google Home, we will test the limits of character-driven, smart AI to discover how to foster believable, effective and natural interactions.
