Release date: March 9th 2023

EON-XR application

EON AI Assistant and Portal updates

  • Multi-language support:
    • You can now converse with the AI Assistant in over 20 languages, including major languages such as Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese and Spanish.

    • Switching languages is easy; just select the language option on the voice input dialog before asking your question, and the AI Assistant will respond in the same language.

    • You can switch between multiple languages during a single session.

  • You can replay the AI response by tapping on a conversation bubble in the AI Portal.

  • If a 3D asset contains curated annotations, you can access a pre-defined question in the AI portal that prompts the AI Assistant to describe the asset’s main components.

  • The AI Assistant now points to both parts of an object and real-world annotations with names that match the AI response.

  • Toast messages are displayed while waiting for the AI Assistant avatar to load and or the AI response to come back.

  • The AI Portal toggle button in the lower left corner now behaves differently:
    • When toggled on (blue), the AI Portal will always appear in 2D mode, regardless of the previous mode.

    • When toggled off, the Portal disappears, but the Assistant will continue to talk if it’s talking.

    • To stop the talking, you can select the Stop button on the Portal.

  • Avatar download speed has been improved.

EON Interact enhancements

  • The Interact portal is now accessed using a new button to the right of the AI Portal toggle button, instead of appearing inside the + row or tapping on a location based action sphere.

  • The action sphere is now used to preview the action; simply tap it to preview, and tap again to stop the preview.

Other updates

  • The audio element in the Knowledge Portal is now generated by AI, resulting in higher-quality output. You can also use the built-in AI prompt to further customize the content, rather than relying on the pre-defined templates.

  • When adding new 3D assets on the Sketchfab tab, you can filter assets by categories.

  • After adding a new 3D Avatar on User Profile page, the page is now refreshed immediately so you can assign it as AI Assistant or 3D playback.
