The 19th Asian Games held in Hangzhou, with its unique charm and innovative technology applications, presented a visual and technological feast for the global audience. In this event, the extensive application of digital human technology has undoubtedly become one of the most eye-catching highlights of the Asian Games. From the opening ceremony of the “digital human ignition” to the field inside and outside the intelligent service, digital human technology not only shows its unique charm, but also for the large-scale Games held an unprecedented change.
I. Innovative Application of Digital Human Technology
In the opening ceremony of the Asian Games, more than 100 million online users around the world participated together, forming a huge “digital torchbearer”. This special torchbearer ran across the Qiantang River in a dragonfly-like manner, ran into the main venue, and lit the main torch together with the on-site torchbearers. This innovative way of lighting the torch was not only amazing, but also triggered heated discussions and curiosity among netizens. As a perfect combination of artificial intelligence, naked eye 3D and reality enhancement technology, “Digital Human Ignition” not only set a precedent for the digitization of ignition ceremony in large-scale games, but also made the digital human technology become a hot topic of discussion in and outside the global industry recently.
II. The Past and Present Life of The Digital Person
Although the digital human technology in recent years has gradually entered the public’s field of vision, but its own is not a new thing. As early as the 1960s, Boeing began to use the digital human called “Boeing Man” in the field of aircraft design as a human model for ergonomic research. In addition, in the automotive industry, digital people have also been widely used, such as Toyota Motor developed “THUMS” human modeling software, can build a very close to the human form, behavior and reaction of the “digital human” driver or passenger. Although these early digital people have limited functions, but has laid the foundation for the subsequent development of intelligence.
III. Intelligent Upgrading of Digital People
With the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, the digital human has realized the intelligent upgrade. Compared with the early digital people, today’s digital people not only have realistic human image and appearance, but also have human behaviors such as language, expression, and action. What’s more, they also have human thoughts and the ability to recognize and interact with each other. This makes the application of digital people in various fields more extensive and in-depth.
For example, in the field of intelligent customer service, digital people have become the right hand of enterprises. When you communicate with an enterprise customer service agent online, you are most likely communicating with a digital person. These digital people are able to provide accurate and fast answers and solutions based on your questions and needs. In addition, digital people are playing an increasingly important role in the fields of healthcare, education, and entertainment.
IV. The Rise of the Digital People Industry
With the continuous development and application of digital human technology, digital human industry is also gradually rising. According to Enterprise Search data, there are hundreds of thousands of enterprises related to the digital human industry in China. These enterprises are committed to the research and development and promotion of digital human technology to promote the rapid development of the digital human industry.
During the development of the digital person industry, some representative enterprises and products stand out. For example, some enterprises utilize AI speech generation technology and realistic expression and action generation technology to make digital people more expressive and infectious in communication, speech and broadcasting. At the same time, with the support of large language models, these digital people are also able to respond accordingly to user messages, providing users with more intelligent services.
In addition, some companies have also launched a “digital patient”, “digital health adviser” and other digital human products with medical value. These products can provide users with simulated medical scenarios and personalized health advice to help users better understand and manage their health.
V. Future Prospects of the Digital Human Industry
With the continuous progress of technology and the continuous expansion of application scenarios, the digital person industry will usher in a broader development prospects. In the future, digital people will not only be limited to communication and interaction in the virtual world, but also penetrate into various fields and scenes in the real world. For example, in the field of traffic and travel, digital people can be used as an important part of intelligent navigation and driving assistance systems; in the construction of smart cities, digital people can be used as an important tool for urban management and services; in the medical field, digital people can provide patients with more personalized and accurate treatment plans and recommendations.
In the meantime, with the continuous development and improvement of digital human technology, the level of intelligence of digital human will also be continuously improved. The future digital person will not only have the basic human behavior and thinking ability, but also have more complex and advanced emotional and consciousness ability. This will make the digital human more natural, smooth and emotional when communicating and interacting with humans.
In conclusion, digital human technology, as one of the important branches in the field of artificial intelligence, has shown its unique charm and value in many fields. With the continuous progress of technology and the continuous expansion of application scenarios, digital people will bring us more surprises and possibilities. Let’s look forward to the development and application of digital human technology in the future!
