Abstract

We are studying how Embodied Conversational Agents (ECAs) express communication behavior with cultural background. The objective of this study is the proposition of the modified Capture and Express Behavior Environment (CEBE) in which a person can interact with ECAs controlled by the captured behavior of another person with cultural background. In this paper, we discuss modifications and concepts of CEBE to apply CEBE for investigations to realize an ECA with cultural background. The prototype system could capture basic human behavior, such as head direction, posture of the upper body, and 3D angles of arms, when each part of the body, such as head, hands, arms and trunk. In addition, the system could control a robot or a virtual agent based on the detected data. We have to develop some implementations to interact with people with cultural background.
