We are pleased to announce that CRI LipSync Alive is now available worldwide. Recently showcased at Unreal Fest 2025 in Tokyo, it is an advanced version of our existing lip-sync middleware, CRI LipSync, that analyzes speech to generate mouth movements for characters.<\/p>\n

It relies on machine learning to generate natural lip-sync animations for any spoken language<\/strong>, meeting the growing demand for digital characters that speak in games and enterprise applications.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/center><\/p>\n
Machine Learning-Driven Speech Analysis for Any Language<\/h6>\n

CRI LipSync Alive uses machine learning based on a Transformer architecture to achieve highly accurate speech analysis<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Instead of the five simple mouth shapes used previously (\u201ca-i-u-e-o\u201d), it now outputs up to 14 animation curves representing five vowels and nine consonants<\/strong>, capturing the mouth movements needed to simulate a broad range of languages.<\/p>\n

The system also adjusts for emotion-driven mouth openness, enabling both realistic 3D characters and stylized 2D characters<\/strong> to speak expressively.
\nDevelopers can also edit and fine-tune the generated results to meet their production needs.<\/p>\n

For Games and Beyond<\/h6>\n

As digital avatars and AI assistants become more common, accurate lip-sync across languages is increasingly important in both entertainment and enterprise settings.<\/p>\n

We have been providing lip-sync technology for about 25 years, not only to the game industry but also to a range of applications for VTubers and live audio-to-animation systems<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Like the current CRI LipSync tool, CRI LipSync Alive is expected to support real-time analysis in the future, and research is ongoing to expand natural expression capabilities, which will benefit all these applications.<\/p>\n
