Transforming a business into a digital operation isn’t just about upgrading software or revamping a website, it starts by putting the needs of your client or employee at the center.
There is an urgent need for an extreme transformation of the customer relationship. Customers live in a world of self service, big data, customer automation and the integration of the online & offline world. If your organization fails to implement the digital relation, your future becomes very uncertain.

What are Digital Humans?
Digital human beings are photorealistic digitised virtual versions of humans. Consider them avatars. While they don’t necessarily have to be created in the likeness of a specific individual (they can be entirely unique), they do look and act like humans. Unlike digital assistants such as Alexa or Siri, these AI-powered virtual beings are designed to interact, sympathise, and have conversations just like a fellow human would.
Some examples:
Neons: AI-powered lifeforms created by Samsung’s STAR Labs and called Neons include unique personalities such as a banker, pop star, and instructor.
Pop Stars: In Japan, new pop stars are getting attention—and these pop stars are made of pixels. One of the band members of AKB48s, AMY, is entirely digital and was made from borrowing features from the human artists in the group.
Fashion Models: Created an entire business to generate completely photorealistic and customizable fashion models. And it turns out you don’t have to be a real-life human to attract a social media following.
AI Hosts: ObEN Inc created virtual celebrities to host the Spring Festival Gala, a celebration of the Chinese lunar new year.
What if we go further? Say hello to the Humanoid Robots!
Humanoid robots are professional service robots built to mimic human motion and interaction. Like all service robots, they provide value by automating tasks in a way that leads to cost-savings and productivity. Humanoid robots are a relatively new form of professional service robot. While long-dreamt about, they’re now starting to become commercially viable in a wide range of applications.
The humanoid robots market is ready for a signficant growth.
