Custom Wake Word AI Avatar System for United Nation Conference
Key Results
The Problem
CTBTO Vienna needed a real-time AI avatar system for their 2025 conference that could be activated without touch interaction. The system needed to work in a conference environment with background noise, support multiple languages for international delegates, and replace button-based activation with natural wake word detection. They required a solution that could handle the complexity of a United Nations conference setting while providing seamless, hands-free interaction with the avatar.
The Solution
We built an integrated system combining proprietary wake word detection with AI avatar generation:
- AI avatar with real-time speech recognition and natural conversation capabilities
- Wake word activation supporting 6 languages (Chinese, Russian, Arabic, Spanish, French, English)
- Advanced audio processing for real-time voice interaction and response generation
- Personalized digital identity creation with customizable avatar appearance and behavior
- Background noise filtering for accurate detection in conference environments
- Hands-free activation replacing manual button interaction
The Result
The custom wake word AI avatar system successfully demonstrated advanced speech recognition, real-time audio processing, and personalized digital identity creation capabilities at the CTBTO Vienna 2025 conference. The system engaged over 500 conference attendees, with 95% wake word detection accuracy across all 6 languages. By replacing manual button activation with natural voice interaction, the system eliminated touch-based interactions entirely, enabling seamless hands-free engagement for international delegates. The solution worked flawlessly in the challenging conference environment with background noise, providing a cutting-edge demonstration of AI avatar technology for a high-profile United Nations event.
