Human image dialogue device and a recording medium storing a human image dialogue device

摘要

A device is provided that generates the gestures and expressions of a human image on a computer without expending a great amount of labor. The words for the system response to the input of a user and the state of the dialogue are described in a dialogue flow memory unit, a dialogue flow analysis unit analyzes the spoken text of the flow, extracts the key words associated with a movement pattern by referring to a text movement association table, and the movement expression generation unit generates the movements corresponding to the movement pattern. In the generation of the movement, movement patterns determined in advance are selected according to the state of the dialogue written in the dialogue flow, and the movement pattern is determined or modified by the key words. In addition, in a text output control unit, words are displayed by switching between the display of a “conversation balloon” or the display of a “message board” according to the state of the dialogue written in the dialogue flow.
