Meitu, Inc. has officially launched the Anime Avatar feature on the Meitu App. The new feature not only automatically generates a highly personalized cartoon image, but also mirrors the user's facial expressions and movements in real time, distinguishing it from the avatar builders of yesterday. Catering to kawaii and cosplay culture enthusiasts, Anime Avatar is the AI-based real-time anime avatar generator on a mainstream consumer app. The Anime Avatar feature can distinguish between tens of thousands of clothing and hair colors, thousands of facial features, hundreds of hair styles, twenty different kinds of accessories, and various skin colors and face types. All of this ensures that the resulting anime avatar both closely matches the attributes of real portraits and is a highly recognizable cartoon image. Users can select the "Photo" button to have the interface display both their original photo and the anime image. The feature allows users to customize their facial features, outfits, clothing items, hairstyles, accessories and backgrounds -- including for special occasions. This year will see the release of Christmas-themed costumes for the avatars and users will have even more custom themed options for future holidays, such as New Year, Spring Festival, and Valentine's Day. The Anime Avatar feature also allows users to create personalized videos and emojis. By selecting the "Video" button, users can record movements of up to 10 seconds, or further personalize the video by adding music and vocal recordings that can be customized by modifying their tone and pitch. By selecting Emoji, users can capture unique facial expressions of up to 5 seconds in length that will be replicated by their anime avatar. They can also add stylized messages to further personalize their emoji.
