Welcome to the public release of the ARIA-VALUSPA Platform (AVP). The platform is developed as part of ARIA-VALUSPA, a EU Horizon 2020 project running from 1 January 2015 to 31 December 2017. The current version (3.0) was released on 23 February 2018.

The Framework comes with the following features:

Dialogue Management

• Unity3D port to put an AVP character in your own Game/AR/VR environment

This wiki contains information how to install the Framework, detailed documentation you need when adapting the framework to your own needs, and some tutorials to get you started.
