Abstract
Various new types of telecommunications services are expected to emerge based on multimedia technologies. In this paper, the concept of hyper-communications is proposed which merges human communications in cyberspace accommodating various people from different places, times zones, and cultures, with computer-generated human-like agent communications. Technologies necessary for bringing about this new telecommunications concept are described along with several research examples at ATR Media Integration and Communications Research Laboratories
