IDFC FIRST Bank Expands AI Amitabh Bachchan Avatar
IDFC FIRST Bank, in collaboration with Ikonz Studios, has introduced an AI-powered holographic avatar of its brand ambassador, Amitabh Bachchan, across five additional cities. This initiative aims to revolutionize customer interaction by providing an immersive and personalized banking experience.
The AI-powered holographic avatar is a digital representation of Amitabh Bachchan, utilizing Holographic Extended Reality (HXR) technology. This technology creates lifelike 3D projections capable of interacting with users. Customers can engage with the avatar through touch-enabled devices to obtain information on various banking products and services, including Zero Fee Banking, Monthly Interest Credits, Mobile Banking, and the innovative Current Account BRAVO.
By deploying this AI-powered holographic avatar, IDFC FIRST Bank offers customers a unique and engaging way to access information and services. The interactive nature of the avatar allows for personalized assistance, making banking simpler, faster, and more engaging. This aligns with the bank’s commitment to a digital-first and customer-centric approach.
The first holographic avatar was launched at IDFC FIRST Bank’s Juhu branch in Mumbai. Following its success, the bank has expanded this technology to five additional cities, aiming to deploy similar devices across high-footfall branches and other strategic locations nationwide.
