Abstract:
This tutorial demonstrates how to integrate AI-driven characters with MetaHuman avatars in Unreal Engine 5 to create interactive, lifelike virtual agents. The objective is to guide developers through the complete workflow of linking large language models (LLMs) or dialogue systems with high-fidelity MetaHumans, enabling them to perceive user inputs, generate intelligent responses, and deliver them through natural voice and facial animations. By combining cutting-edge AI with real-time rendering, this approach unlocks powerful applications in virtual storytelling, immersive education, training simulations, and therapeutic environments.
