Overview

InteLLA is a pipeline developed at Equmenopolis Inc. to generate photorealistic humanoid avatars for use as AI-driven tutors. The system enables rapid character creation — from scan/reference input to a rigged, expressive real-time avatar — and deploys across XR platforms including HoloLens 2.

My Role

As Lead Graphics Engineer, I designed and implemented the full avatar pipeline: photogrammetry cleanup, LOD generation, blend shape rigging, shader development, and runtime streaming into Unity.

Key Features

  • Photorealistic skin, hair, and cloth shaders in Unity URP
  • Fully rigged facial blend shapes for lip sync and emotion
  • Optimized for real-time XR rendering on untethered headsets
  • Integrated with Equmenopolis’ AI conversation backend
