Tech Planet cited reports that Alibaba (09988.HK) is testing an AI video creation tool called 'Animode,' which is an AI tool for one-click animation of videos, supporting video-to-video conversion, used to create anime characters and blockbuster effects.

Users can upload images and videos to 'Animode' to transform real-world videos into anime-style videos. 'Animode' can also capture human movements, used to create real-time synchronized anime characters, with the movements and actions of characters becoming smooth and fluid during the conversion process. To this end, 'Animode' has built-in motion libraries, video-to-motion conversion, and one-click voice creation functions, as well as various styles including 3D scenes, animation scenes, and VR reality fusion modes, allowing for the rapid creation of intricate scenes.

As for real-time rendering, 'Animode' has built-in AI lighting, post-processing, and high-fidelity offline rendering functions, which can improve the color content and motion fluency of videos.

Reports indicate that the official domain name of 'Animode' is 'animode.com.cn.' According to the record search on the website of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the record subject of this domain is Hangzhou Lianfan Information Technology, the developer of Alibaba's AI e-commerce tool product 'Drawfrog.'
