Abstract
Using virtual humans as participant embodiment increases the collaboration in Networked Virtual Environments, as it provides a direct relationship between how we interact with the real world and the virtual world representation. Nonverbal communication is an important aspect in real-life collaboration, therefore the means allowing the users to replicate it should be provided in the virtual world. In this paper, we present our category of nonverbal communication actions based on the psycho-sociological theory, and provide a solution that balances between practical limitations of input devices and sociological aspects. We introduce our implementation using our VLNET (Virtual Life Network) networked virtual environment.
