  • Patent number: 9805493
    Abstract: One or more social interactive goals for an automated entity such as an avatar may be determined during a social interaction between the automated entity and a selected entity such as a human. Identity attributes of identity images from an identity model of the automated entity may be used to determine a set of behavioral actions the automated entity is to take for the determined goals. Paralanguage elements expressed for the automated entity via a user interface may be altered based on the determined set of behavioral actions. The automated entity may refer to a computer implemented automaton that simulates a human in the user interface of an interactive computing environment. By way of example, an avatar cybernetic goal seeking behavior may be implemented in accordance with an identity theory model.

  • Patent number: 8126838
    Abstract: Systems and methods can provide an immersive learning environment based on cognitive task analysis followed by an analysis of instructional requirements and development of an instructional strategy. One or more immersive scenarios can be created and presented via an audio/visual training structure which enables a participant to improve real-time decision making in stressful, rapidly changing circumstances.
