Explore how Ovation merges virtual reality with AI-powered avatars to create realistic, immersive environments that elevate real-world communication skills.
Step into a session that invites you into a next‑level communication experience with Ovation, where virtual reality meets AI coaching for authentic, impactful skill building. You will discover how immersive environments, realistic avatars, and precision analysis transform communication training.
This presentation brings Ovation’s core capabilities to life for educators, corporate trainers, speech coaches, language learners, and professionals seeking to elevate their practice.
What the Session Covers
Immersive Speaking Scenarios with AI Avatars
Attendees will explore Ovation’s wide range of simulated environments, from speeches with Q&A to interviews, impromptu talks, debates, therapy sessions, podcasts, press conferences, and more. Each scenario uses ChatGPT‑powered avatars that respond intelligently and create a lifelike experience.
Real‑Time Feedback as You Speak
Attendees will experience how Ovation tracks behaviors such as filler words, gaze direction, speech rate, gestures, and monotony. Immediate on‑screen cues notify when adjustments are needed, helping users stay aware and in control during simulations.
Recording and 3D Playback
Each session is recorded in 3D, enabling users to review their performance from any angle. This visual playback makes it easier to spot areas for improvement, such as posture or eye contact, that audio alone cannot reveal.
AI‑Driven Feedback with Factors
After a simulation, Ovation generates a comprehensive report with AI‑scored Factors such as Clarity, Fluency, Empathy, Engagement, and Persuasiveness. Each factor receives a score from 0 to 100 and is displayed in an intuitive radar chart. Attendees will see how built‑in factors work and how to design personalized or organizational factors aligned with specific learning goals.
Scenario Modifiers for Custom‑Tailored Training
Presenters will demonstrate how to adjust an avatar’s mood, attitudes, or background using Scenario Modifiers. You can shape AI behavior to be skeptical, anxious, supportive, indifferent, or deeply complex. This control allows simulations to mimic real‑world challenges in detail.
Accessibility and Deployment Versatility
Ovation works on Meta Quest headsets (Quest 2, 3, 3S, Pro) for immersive use and on Windows desktops via Monitor Mode for users without VR devices. Organizations can deploy it broadly through education‑focused subscriptions and centralized management tools.
Why Attend
This session enables attendees to experience how Ovation blends immersive scenarios with measurable feedback for communication improvement. Participants will walk away with practical outcomes:
First‑hand familiarity with the feel, adaptability, and immediacy of AI‑driven speaking simulations.
A clear understanding of how Factors provide targeted analysis, highlight strengths, and pinpoint growth areas.
Confidence in commanding avatar behavior using Scenario Modifiers to replicate high‑pressure or emotionally complex situations.
Awareness of Ovation’s flexibility, from VR headset setups to monitor‑based access and handling organizational rollout.
In Summary
Educators attending this session will discover how Ovation seamlessly integrates into curricula to equip students with exceptional communication skills. You will learn to create realistic, immersive practice environments that boost student confidence, foster deep learning, and provide measurable, personalized feedback. By incorporating Ovation into your classroom, you'll empower your students to communicate clearly, effectively, and authentically in real-world situations, preparing them for success beyond graduation.
