虚拟代理的视觉设计为开发者提供了非常多的选择。我们使用亚马逊的 Mechanical Turk 进行了一系列研究，结果表明角色的设计没有通用性，角色比例和渲染风格的最佳设计取决于任务领域和用户特征。具体来说，我们发现对代理外观的这些调整直接影响用户根据其是否讨论社交或医疗内容对其进行评分。这项研究的结果旨在帮助为特定领域的虚拟代理的开发创建视觉指南。
The visual design of virtual agents presents developers with a very large number of choices. We conducted a series of studies using Amazon’s Mechanical Turk that demonstrate that there are no design universals for characters, optimal design of character proportion and rendering style depends on the task domain and user characteristics. Specifically, we found these adjustments to an agent’s appearance directly effected how users rated it based on whether it was discussing social or medical content. The results of this research aim to help create visual guidelines for the development of domain specific virtual agents.
