Authenticity is highly important when constructing the digital twin. Capturing users´ emotions using their smartphones allows the animation of avatar facial expressions to a detailed degree. To protect the customer´s appearance, Emova offers a Blockchain and NFT solution to ensure that users’ avatars are protected.

Emova only requires three pictures of someone´s head to create an avatar with their face and hairstyle. The pictures sent to create the avatar are matched to existing hairstyles, and a pre-built 3D hairstyle is chosen from an asset database. This, coupled with the product digitization, ensures a unique personalization experience and immersion in the brand universe.

The process is mostly handled in the cloud, and the real-time rendering is streamed to the smartphone or computer. thanks to the personalization experience and immersion in the brand universe.

With its flexibility across platforms and user-friendliness for both retailers and customers, once the virtual twin has been created, your customers can use it in all compatible stores. This is made possible with the help of an API provided by Emova, which ensures that the same avatar can also be used on every website that uses the startup´s technology.

The solution´s performance in terms of conversion rate is estimated to give a +20% boost for retailers, whereas the rate of product returns is decreased by around 15%.
