Mequon-based startup Intelligent Digital Avatars Inc. has launched a new funding round in which it hopes to raise $2 million.
iDAvatars develops avatars for use in the health care space. The avatars, which are built on IBM’s Watson framework, use advanced technology such as natural language processing and can demonstrate human behaviors such as empathy.
