Next-gen Interactive COunterpart
Who's NICO? He's a smart adversary. She's a professional instructor. NICO is MAK's Next-generation Interactive Counterpart. They are the virtual avatars you need to elevate your training, education, and experiential projects.
A system of virtual avatars, NICO presents as lifelike digital representations of humans, capable of realistically responding to verbal and non-verbal user input, and carrying on meaningful conversations, interrogations, and instructions.
Innovative Integration of Technology
NICO integrates artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies with augmented reality (AR) to elevate virtual avatar interactions to unprecedented levels of realism, revolutionizing how we engage with digital systems as sentient beings.
NICO is a flexible system that can be used anywhere up close and personal interactions are needed.
Border Screening
A labor-reducing aid for border control agencies, Nico detects deceit, performs facial, voice, and fingerprint recognition, and connects to relevant databases, acting as a first-line filter in airports and other border and security control points.
Nico can simulate a variety of behavioral cues associated with potential criminal or terrorist activities, or exhibit a range of threat indicators, such as nervous movements, erratic behavior, or carrying suspicious objects so officers learn to identify suspicious behaviors/threats and respond appropriately.Military Training
Nico offers a versatile and effective tool for military training, allowing soldiers to hone their skills in threat detection, crowd control, communication, and decision-making in a safe and controlled environment.
The Nico system creates realistic, simulated environments that mimic scenarios soldiers may encounter in the field. This includes crowded spaces, urban landscapes, and various levels of threat situations. Soldiers can navigate through these simulations encountering avatars that need to be analyzed allowing them to practice and refine their skills in observing and analyzing human behavior.
