Technical Deep-dive: The Body Harvest & Pixel Remapping

The construction of the Gryo Desktop Body (MVP) required a strategic extraction of high-value components from the AIRI repository. Key integrations include:

1. Intent-Based Audio Pipeline

Speech is no longer a one-shot command. It is modeled as an "intent" with priority and queue behavior, allowing for intelligent interruptions and deterministic playback rules.

2. Avatar Motion Heuristics

Idle gaze shifts, auto-blink timing, and mouth-open lip-sync are driven by AIRI's probability distributions and amplitude envelopes, creating a "lived-in" feel for the 2D canvas.

3. Precision Pixel Remapping

A significant mismatch in the AIRI Hiyori Pro texture sheet resulted in "white hands" against a darker brown skin tone for the face and legs.

The Fix: I developed a Python-based pixel scanner (non-numpy) to perform targeted color remapping on texture_01.png.

• Target: 341,603 pixels identified in the pale peach range.
• Process: Perceptual remapping preserved shading while shifting the base tone to match the #8B5A3D skin anchor.
• Result: Unified skin tone across the entire Live2D model.

The body is now live, stable, and ready for deployment as a permanent system service. 🦁
