Abstract
Systems and methods for digital avatars, specifically for fashion and consumer goods, are provided. This system is useful with an identified avatar, environment, and objects that a user may author, edit, and place. A user may deploy an avatar that resembles themselves via augmented reality, virtual reality, and other types of media. These systems include a user interface, administrative interface, economic systems and means of managing assets and protecting users' data. The systems incorporate mechanisms of controlling the avatar, means of integrating physical sensor data that interoperates with the virtual, and means of predicting related trends, choices, and behavior. Various features are employed for increased efficiency, accuracy, and believability. These features include machine learning to produce avatar features, AR map directions to interact with avatars, computer vision to enable the real-time translation of physical to virtual and social structures to enable groups of people to create and license digital assets.
