Hey tech lovers! 🤖 China has just rolled out its first national standard for virtual digital humans in customer service. Issued on October 5, 2025, this guideline lays out unified requirements for AI avatars across finance, government affairs, education and more.
Here’s what you need to know:
- Avatar Generation: 2D avatars must have crisp facial details, while 3D hyper-realistic models require at least 200,000 polygons for fine geometric accuracy.
- Multimodal Interaction: Systems should support voice, gesture and body movement. Lip-sync accuracy must hit 90%+, and gesture/body interaction success rates also need to be 90% or higher. 🗣️👋
- Emotional AI: Digital humans must recognize emotions—joy, sadness, anxiety—with at least 80% accuracy and respond with fitting expressions and tone. ❤️😢
- Performance Metrics: Speech response time under 2 seconds, semantic understanding accuracy of 85%+ for seamless, context-aware chats.
The standard applies to upgrades of existing 2D and 3D products and even opens the door for AI-generated content, so companies can mix in new tech based on their needs. Unified testing methods are coming soon, offering a clear benchmark to spot issues and optimize your digital reps.
Whether you’re building a chatbot for a mobile bank in Jakarta or an e-learning assistant in Bangalore, these specs ensure your digital human feels more natural than ever. Ready to meet your next AI colleague? 🌏🚀
