Imagine a virtual science ambassador at the Cambridge Festival and department open days that engages visitors in lively discussions about science and their experiences. This project will develop an embodied virtual agent based on the new LEXI framework for speech-based interaction. The system should allow customisation, so that users of all technical abilities can create and deploy their own AI agents able to interact naturally in spoken conversation in a variety of social settings.
