Motion-Omni is an end‑to‑end framework that jointly generates spoken dialogue and full‑body motion, producing speech, facial expressions, and hand, upper‑body, and lower‑body movements directly from the hidden states of a language model. The system requires joint training of the language model, speech generator, and motion generator to maintain audio‑motion alignment, and it is supervised using a scalable, model‑agnostic pipeline that pseudo‑labels 422,856 speech‑motion pairs. With a Qwen2.5‑7B‑Instruct backbone, Motion‑Omni‑Q7 achieves near‑cascade performance on motion metrics while being 5.4× faster, and it outperforms other non‑teacher cascades on beat correlation, diversity, and word error rate.

arXiv:2606. 05121v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Audio is an inherently interactive modality, yet today's Large Audio Language Models (LALMs) are offline, and streaming audio models each handle only a single task such as streaming ASR or voice chatting.
Natural face-to-face conversation requires real-time speech generation together with synchronized facial motion. Existing systems only partially address this problem: speech-only full-duplex models can generate speech in real time but do not produce facial motion, while audio-driven facial motion models animate a face from already available audio rather than jointly generating speech and motion online.
