Hunyuan Avatar - High-Fidelity Audio-Driven Human Animation
Transform audio and images into high-quality AI avatar videos with Hunyuan Avatar, an advanced audio-driven human animation model designed for creating dynamic, emotion-controllable, and multi-character dialogue videos.
Overview
HunyuanAvatar is a High-Fidelity Audio-Driven Human Animation model for Multiple Characters. The model excels at generating highly dynamic videos while preserving character consistency, achieving precise emotion alignment between characters and audio, and enabling multi-character audio-driven animation through innovative multimodal diffusion transformer (MM-DiT) architecture.
Key Capabilities
Create production-ready avatar videos with:
Character Consistency Preservation
- Generate dynamic videos while maintaining strong character consistency
- Character image injection module eliminates condition mismatch between training and inference
- Fine-tune facial characteristics across different poses and expressions
Audio-Driven Animation
- High-fidelity audio-driven human animation capabilities
- Audio Emotion Module (AEM) extracts and transfers emotional cues from reference images
- Face-Aware Audio Adapter (FAA) enables independent audio injection for multi-character scenarios
Multi-Character Support
- Generate multi-character dialogue videos from single inputs
- Independent audio injection via cross-attention for multiple characters
- Realistic avatars in dynamic, immersive scenarios
