A kiosk-based AI avatar experience designed for real-world customer interaction.
I handled the character motion side of the kiosk experience, including rigging, triggered animations, and animation planning based on the customer order flow. I also helped design the conversation scenarios, deciding what kinds of character actions were needed at each step of the kiosk interaction.
For lip sync and facial expression, I created ARKit-based resources so the avatar could follow TTS speech naturally while still keeping the character stylized, cute, and not overly realistic. Since Nal Nani was designed as a character-driven avatar, I focused on making the motion feel expressive and approachable without becoming too visually busy inside the kiosk interface.
I also created waiting screen animations that would catch customers’ attention before they started using the kiosk. The goal was to make the avatar feel alive inside the screen, while keeping the motion clear, friendly, and comfortable to watch.
For the voice system, I also recorded around 30 hours of voice data for Nal Nani’s voice training.
This project also includes waiting screen animation work for The Venti, a large café chain brand, where the avatar was used in an AI voice ordering test.
