Wow, this would change how animation is done completely! If there existed an easy way to create animated character cartoons. It would launch a thousand southpark/rick and morty type of shows. A team with 10k can launch a show.
It would be cool privacy-wise to have some sort of virtual webcam that could share such an animation rather than what the webcam actually sees.
It sounds like a cool idea. Probably a platform to act on a play/script as the characters themselves? Like, a social theatre kind of thing with pre-animated background and stuff, where you only do your character part.

I believe Adobe has had this for a long time in character animator https://www.adobe.com/products/character-animator.html
They won an Emmy for it this year, their post about it (https://theblog.adobe.com/adobe-character-animator-receives-...) notes that it was used for a live broadcast of the Simpsons, and a Showtime series called "Our Cartoon President" (https://www.sho.com/our-cartoon-president).

Why is this down voted? I hate it when people do that and offer no explanation. Totally useless input, even harmful. HN should force comment on down-vote.
> HN should force comment on down-vote This is actually a great idea
So the explanation may be that it is useless input but believe me it is not useless to the author to have people congratulate them for the fruit of their labor. It's a human desire to be recognized by others. How is it not a positive comment? Why down-vote something as benign and empathic as saying congratulations? So force a comment on each down-vote and things might get a little bit better because at least we'll know it's not just random acts of hostility and that the down-voter has a rational reason for it, at least in their mind.

How interesting would it be to have your own live emotionally expressive avatar for videoconferencing, when you don't want to worry about your hair, makeup, lighting, or general visual state at all?

One reason that guideline exists is that unfair downvotes frequently get canceled by users who come along, see the situation, and make a corrective upvote. Meanwhile complaints like this linger on in the thread, inaccurate and off-topic—they don't garbage-collect themselves. As an example, I noticed your other comment and upvoted it before I saw this comment here. Similarly, other users have upvoted the GP.
As with any stochastic process, there is a lot of error and spillage with downvotes. There's no way to perfect it; you have to ask whether the system is better off with it than without it. Forcing comments wouldn't help, and posting complaints certainly doesn't help.
The annotated SVG skeleton is a separate download, but that server is out of quota :( Someone have it?
