1      Functions of Composite AIM

Personal Status Display (PSD) is a Composite AIM receiving Text and Personal Status and generating the Face and Body Descriptors of an Avatar producing Text and uttering Speech with the intended Personal Status while the avatar’s Face and Gesture show the intended Personal Status. The Personal Status driving the avatar can be extracted from a human or can be synthetically generated by a machine as a result of its conversation with a human or another avatar. Several Use Cases from MPAI-MMC and other MPAI standards use this Composite AIM as a replacement for the combination of the AIMs depicted in Figure 8.

2      Reference Model

Figure 1 depicts the AIMs required to implement Personal Status Display.

Figure 1 – Reference Model of Personal Status Display

The Personal Status Display operates as follows:

  1. Avatar ID is the ID of the Portable Avatar.
  2. Machine Text is synthesised as Speech using the Personal Status provided by PS-Speech.
  3. Machine Speech and PS-Face are used to produce the Machine Face Descriptors.
  4. PS-Gesture and Text are used for Machine Body Descriptors using the Avatar Model.
  5. Portable Avatar Multiplexing produces the Portable Avatar.

3      I/O Data of Personal Status Display
