Why InfinityHuman focuses on pose first

Pose is a compact way to represent motion. By predicting a sequence of poses that follows the audio track, the system gets a reliable motion plan. Since poses do not encode textures, colors, or lighting, they stay stable over time and do not drift as easily. This allows the next stage to focus on reconstructing appearance with the help of the first frame, which serves as a visual reference.

The refiner is pose-guided. It reads the stable pose sequence, looks back at the initial frame to remember the person’s face and clothing, and builds full images for each step. This reduces identity changes and improves lip synchronization, because the refiner has both motion guidance and a fixed visual reminder of how the person should look.

Core ideas in simple terms

• Start with audio. Use the sound to time gestures, head turns, and lip motion.
• Predict a pose sequence. Keep motion clean and consistent across many seconds or minutes.
• Use the first frame as an anchor to preserve appearance and lighting.
• Refine poses into high-resolution frames with a pose-guided refiner.
• Reduce drift by decoupling motion (pose) from appearance.
• Keep identity steady and improve lip sync over long durations.

What InfinityHuman tries to solve

The main challenge is the accumulation of small errors across long videos. When a method keeps drawing new frames without a solid reference, identity slowly shifts. Facial details look different, the color balance slides, and the scene becomes unstable. Another challenge is hand and body motion. Many systems generate short segments that feel repetitive or out of sync with speech.

InfinityHuman addresses these issues by introducing pose as a stable intermediate and an initial-frame anchor for appearance. The combination holds identity in place while allowing motion to follow the audio. Over time, this reduces drift and improves the perceived quality of long sequences.

How the pipeline works

1. Audio analysis: extract timing cues for speech and emphasis.
2. Pose prediction: generate a sequence of poses aligned with the audio.
3. Visual anchor: keep the first frame as the stable reference for identity.
4. Pose-guided refinement: reconstruct full frames from poses while matching the anchor.
5. Consistency checks: detect potential drift and correct it over time.

This coarse-to-fine pipeline separates motion design from appearance reconstruction. It is easier to keep motion smooth and then render details, than to do both at once for long sequences.

Long-term animation with steady identity

Long videos expose weaknesses that short clips hide. Even minor drift becomes noticeable after a minute. InfinityHuman keeps identity steady by always referring back to the first frame while reading pose guidance. This helps maintain facial structure, skin tone, hair, and clothing across the sequence. Lighting stays more consistent, and background elements remain stable.

Natural hand and body motion is another focus. The system encourages varied gestures that match speech patterns. Instead of repeating the same motion, the pose sequence reflects pauses, emphasis, and changes in tone. This results in movement that feels appropriate for the audio.

What you can use it for

• Talking avatar clips for education or training material.
• Product walkthroughs where a presenter explains steps over a long video.
• Interview-style content that requires stable identity and clear lip sync.
• Advertisement narration synced to a presenter’s speech.
• Explainers and tutorials that rely on steady framing and consistent appearance.

Design principles

• Clarity: prefer simple steps over complex tuning.
• Stability: keep a strong anchor to avoid drift.
• Faithfulness: align motion with audio timing and articulation.
• Scalability: extend from short segments to long videos without losing identity.

Comparison at a glance

Step-by-step: from audio to video

1. Prepare an input audio track and a first video frame that represents the person and scene.
2. Run audio analysis to extract phoneme timing and emphasis points.
3. Predict a pose sequence that follows the timing cues.
4. Feed the poses into the refiner along with the first frame as the anchor.
5. Generate frames and check identity consistency at regular intervals.
6. Export the result as a long video with steady appearance and synchronized motion.
