Abstract

The Interactive Drama Inc. (IDI) voice-activated multimedia model called Conversim (conversation simulator), which lets a user conduct a virtual interview with a real person whose video images are digitized and stored on a PC. Conversim is a voice-activated multimedia model that gives users the illusion with a conversation with a real person whose prestored images deliver spontaneous responses to queries. The model consists of a series of Delphi programs that incorporate state-of-the-art speech recognition and digital video technologies and operate on a standard PC.
