Abstract

This short paper contains a preliminary description of a novel type of chat system that aims at realizing natural and social communication between distant communication partners. The system is based on an Emotion Estimation module that assesses the affective content of textual chat messages and avatars associated with chat partners that act out the assessed emotions of messages through multiple modalities, including synthetic speech and associated affective gestures.
