Learning Nonverbal Emotion Interaction In 3D Intelligent Virtual Environment For Children

Nonverbal emotion interaction is very important for children, learning nonverbal emotion interaction by computer technology is an interesting subject. In a certain intelligent virtual environment (IVE), multi virtual characters interact with emotion and construct an virtual society. Modeling nonverbal social interaction is very important for constructing believable virtual characters. Nonverbal social interaction is a direct communication manner for virtual characters in an IVE. A cognitive architecture of virtual character is presented in this paper, the architecture outlines high-level knowledge of virtual characters in IVE, some new concepts on nonverbal social interaction is set up. A virtual character has the ability of social interaction with other virtual characters by cognitive architecture.
