In collaboration with MindLabs, Midpoint Brabant, the municipality of Tilburg, Yonder (ROC Tilburg), BUas and Tilburg University, we managed to obtain a Regio Deal grant, a government grant intended to reinforce regions. For this project, the consortium operates under the name of Digital Innovation District for Society. The focus of this project is on two ambitions: the development of interactive virtual humans and their potential for serious application in society, and the growth of the Spoorzone as an innovation district.
A virtual human is an AI controlled, digital person. This technology develops rapidly, enabling virtual humans to show emotions and have increasingly natural conversations. Together with the Fontys lectorships Designing Journalism and Human & Technology we develop practical cases within the domains of healthcare, education and media.
