It focuses on how to automatically understand social signals captured from a microphone and camera (sensors), interpret these signals, and respond in a natural way to the player. One of the interesting things is that a player in a Role Playing Game (RPG) is already engaged with the Non-Player Characters (NPCs), making interactions with NPCs directly or indirectly in game. Over time, a pattern of interaction between player and virtual agents may form a relationship between them. There remain several interesting questions to investigate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Academic Experiences<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I was a teaching assistant at BINUS\u00a0University at 2007 .
