Theatre-Grade Technology
Every component engineered for presence, privacy, and performance.
The Aethos Pipeline
Voice Input
Your words are captured with spatial microphones built into the VR headset.
Speech Recognition
On-device neural networks transcribe your speech in real time.
AI Thinking
A local language model reasons about context, memory, and character.
Voice Response
Neural text-to-speech generates a natural, character-appropriate reply.
Facial Animation
52 ARKit blendshapes bring the character's face to life in real time.
Core Capabilities
Sub-Centimetre Tracking
Precision VR tracking ensures your movements translate seamlessly into the ancient world. Every gesture, every step is captured with millimetre accuracy.
Adaptive AI Conversation
No scripts. No dialogue trees. Our AI characters respond to what you actually say, learning your interests and adapting in real time.
Neural Text-to-Speech
Character voices are generated by neural networks, producing natural intonation, emotion, and pacing that sounds genuinely human.
Real-Time Facial Animation
52 ARKit blendshapes drive every smile, frown, and raised eyebrow. Characters express emotion as naturally as their words.
Privacy by Architecture
Everything runs locally. Your conversations never leave the building. No cloud. No data collection. No recordings. Just you and the ancient world.
