Project Overview

Built an AI system where users upload an image and text, which is converted into speech and synced with the image to generate realistic talking head avatars.

Detailed Description

This innovative generative AI project creates realistic talking head avatars from static images. Users can upload a photograph and provide text content, which is converted to natural-sounding speech and synchronized with facial animations.

Key achievements: - Implemented deep learning models for facial animation and lip-sync - Integrated Text-to-Speech (TTS) engines supporting 15+ languages - Achieved 90%+ lip-sync accuracy with realistic head movements - Created user-friendly platform with intuitive interface

The system uses cutting-edge generative models for facial movement prediction and can generate videos in multiple languages, making it valuable for education, entertainment, and virtual interactions.

Challenge

Achieving realistic facial animations and maintaining lip-sync accuracy across different languages.

Solution

Used advanced GANs and attention mechanisms to generate smooth, natural-looking facial movements.
