Hello everyone,

We are thrilled to introduce the **New Convai Unreal Engine Plugin** , powered by Convai’s latest **Live Character API**.

Built on the **WebRTC protocol** , this update represents a massive leap forward in AI character interaction. It enables ultra-low latency, real-time engagement, and unlocks powerful new capabilities that allow your AI characters to see, remember, and understand their world like never before.

In this video, we take you to a Mars World Demo to showcase these features live in action!

### ✨ Key Features in This Update

- **⚡ WebRTC Powered:** Experience significantly reduced latency for seamless, real-time conversations.

- **👁 Real-Time Vision:** Characters can now “see” dynamic events and objects in the environment and react to them instantly.

- **🧠 Long-Term Memory:** Characters remember past interactions and context, making conversations deeper and more meaningful over time.

- **📚 Multimodal Knowledge:** AI that understands context beyond just text, integrating visual cues into its knowledge base.

- **🗣 Hands-Free Conversation:** Fluid dialogue without the need for push-to-talk inputs.

### 🛠 Step-by-Step Setup Guide
