Google AR&VR, in collaboration with a research team from the University of Central Florida, has released a virtual character library called 'VALID' to promote diversity and inclusion. The library includes 210 validated, fully equipped virtual characters representing seven different races, including Asian, Black, and White. Research findings show consistent recognition of Asian, Black, and White virtual characters among participants of various races, but the representation of races such as Native American, Alaskan Native, Hispanic, Middle Eastern, North African, Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander is still lacking.
