METHOD AND EQUIPMENT FOR AUTOMATIC REAL-TIME PRODUCTION OF VIRTUAL AUDIO-VISUAL SEQUENCES FROM A TEXTUAL MESSAGE AND EXTERNAL EVENTS AND FOR BROADCASTING SAID SEQUENCES

摘要

The invention concerns equipment for automatic real time production of virtual audio-visual sequences and for broadcasting said sequences, comprising a voice synthesizing module (13), a graphic module (12) for generating computer synthesized images and a processor for monitoring the input and output interfaces and said modules. The invention is characterised in that it comprises a first storage unit wherein are recorded a behaviour database (5), a text analysing module (7) receiving messages deriving from an input interface (1) and generating behavioural markers (5) derived from the behaviour database (5) based on the input messages, said markers monitoring the graphic module (12), the equipment further comprising means for synchronising the voice synthesizing module and the graphic module and audio and video circuits receiving data derived from the voice synthesizing and the graphic modules to deliver an audio-visual signal. The invention also concerns a method for automatic real-time production of virtual audio-visual sequences.
