Abstract: Abstract 3D avatar platforms are tools for offering customer services for production, distribution, and consumption of 3D avatars as a product. In this way 3D avatar platforms will become essentially a virtual home for realistic 3D avatars that can be used to explore virtual worlds that are a part of the platform or can be used as a “vehicle” for visiting virtual worlds on different platforms. Research on existing 3D avatar platforms is described in the paper, alongside their capabilities, tools, and the virtual worlds they offer. A 3D avatar platform showcase was developed for CeBIT 2017 as a proof of concept, and it will be used in the future as a gateway for digitizing persons into virtual worlds. The paper conceptualizes the possibilities and features of future 3D avatar platforms.
