In accord with the present invention, a method is defined for an ordinary computer user to customize an avatar, so as to determine how the avatar is animated afterwards. The animation method used is preferably intuitive and simple so that ordinary computer users can learn and manipulate avatars easily and efficiently. Interaction with the virtual character can preferably involve animation of its face. Preferably the invention comprises the steps of offering an avatar a default setting of a mechanism of muscle movement, and a user interacts with the mechanism of muscle movement so as to customize the avatar. The method is preferably used in stand-alone application and multimedia communication, such as Internet, email and wireless applications. Users are able to be creative in the process of animation, thus may reveal personal flavors and personality traits through an avatar. In accord with the present invention, a method is defined for an intelligent system to analyze potentially damaging information, and send special signals to users in real time, so as to alert potential victims and discourage predators. The present invention defines a method to intelligently process messages that are being sent through online chat sessions, so as to alert potential victims and discourage predators or pedophiles. The method uses intelligent systems that are loaded with a set of rules. By analyzing the messages against these rules, potentially damaging messages can be captured. Then, instructions can be triggered by the intelligent systems. As a result, graphic outputs will be displayed to alert potential victims and discourage predators. The services can be offered in real time. |
