For Developers: This guide provides a technical blueprint for building an automated image-to-Live2D conversion pipeline. We'll cover the AI models, file formats, and integration strategies needed to turn a single character image into a fully rigged, interactive Live2D model. 🏗️ Pipeline Architecture Overview The complete pipeline consists of 6 stages, each requiring specific AI models or algorithms: 📷 Input Image → 🔪 Segmentation → 🎨 Inpainting → 🕸️ Mesh Gen → ⚙️ Rigging → 📦 Export Stage Input Output AI/Algorithm 1. Segmentation Single image Layer masks Semantic segmentation (UNet, ISNet) 2. Inpainting Layer masks + image Comple...

You have an image of your favorite character. You want to turn it into a Live2D avatar that moves, blinks, and talks. Can AI do this automatically? Let's explore what's actually possible in 2025—the tools, the limitations, and realistic workflows. 🎯 The Dream vs. Reality ✅ What People Want Upload one image Click a button Get a fully rigged Live2D model Ready to use in any app ❌ Current Reality Full Live2D requires layered artwork Rigging still needs manual work AI can help, but can't do it all True one-click solutions are limited 🎭 The Hard Truth: Creating a proper Live2D model traditionally requires separating an image into layers (face, eyes, hair,...

Want to use your own Live2D avatar instead of the default model? This guide walks you through everything you need to know—from finding models to hosting them and adding them to the chatbot. No coding required! 📋 What You'll Need A Live2D Cubism 3.0+ model (not Cubism 2.x) A place to host the model files (GitHub, your own server, etc.) The direct URL to the .model3.json file Optional: A thumbnail image URL for the model selector 🗂️ Understanding Live2D Model Files A Live2D model isn't just one file—it's a folder containing multiple files that work together: 📁 my_character/ ├── my_character.model3.json ← Main file (you need this URL!) ├── my_character.moc3 ← The actual 3D model data ├── my_character.physics3.json ← Physics settings (hair bounce, etc.) ├── my_character.pose3.json ← Pose/expression data ├── 📁 textures/...

When your AI companion speaks, there's a lot happening behind the scenes. Text-to-speech might seem simple—text goes in, audio comes out—but making it sound natural requires sophisticated queue management, intelligent chunking, and graceful error handling. Here's a deep dive into how we make AI speech seamless. 🎯 The Challenge When a user asks the AI a question, the response might be several paragraphs long. Playing this as one massive audio file creates problems: ⏳ Long Wait Times Users would wait 10+ seconds before hearing anything while the entire response is synthesized. 💥 API Limits TTS services have character limits (often 300-500 chars). Long text simply fails. 🔄 No Recovery If playback fails halfway, you'd have to restart from the beginning....

With 193 supported languages in our animated chatbot, understanding linguistic relationships has become essential. As AI improves in language ability, there's tremendous opportunity to benefit from deep linguistic knowledge. Here's a comprehensive guide to the languages we support and how they relate to each other phonetically. 193 Supported Languages 12 Native TTS Voices 20+ Language Families ~50 Tonal Languages 🎤 Languages with Native Voice Support Our text-to-speech system provides native female voices for these 12 languages, which serve as the foundation for all voice output: Language Voice ID Region/Variant 🇺🇸 English en-female United States 🇯🇵 Japanese ja-female Japan 🇩🇪 German de-female Germany 🇧🇷 Portuguese pt-female Brazil 🇪🇸 Spanish es-female Spain 🇫🇷 French fr-female France 🇨🇳 Chinese (Simplified) zh-female Mainland China 🇹🇼 Chinese (Traditional) ...
