    Abstract: A technology is described for simulating communication expressions detected in speech data using virtual objects. An example method may include receiving speech data for a virtual object configured to simulate communication expressions provided by the speech data. The speech data may be analyzed for an indicator of a communication expression and communication mark data that includes an expression tag representing the communication expression may be generated. The speech data and the communication mark data may be transmitted to a simulation client to enable synchronization of an animated expression for the virtual object with the speech data using the expression tag in the communication mark data.

    Abstract: A technology is described for streaming object data for a virtual object to a simulation client and dynamically incorporating the virtual object into a simulation environment in response to detecting an interactive event in the simulation environment. An example method may include receiving an indication of an interactive event associated with a simulation environment, where the indication of the interactive event may be sent over a network by a simulation client configured to execute the simulation environment. In response to receiving the indication of the interactive event, object data for a virtual object linked to the interactive event may be identified. An audio stream for the virtual object may be obtained, and the object data and the audio stream may be streamed to the simulation client and the virtual object may be incorporated in the simulation environment.
