Integration boundary
What connects to what
Spatius documents both a short LiveKit quickstart and a Direct Mode adapter pattern for using Gemini Live's native audio output as avatar speech.
Prerequisites
- Current Gemini Live API credentials and access
- Spatius App ID, Avatar ID, and an approved session-token flow
- A defined audio source, format, sample rate, and interruption policy
- A test environment that matches the target browser, device, or server runtime
Implementation path
Build a testable baseline
- 1
Confirm the current Gemini Live API version and read both linked first-party sources.
- 2
Run the smallest official Spatius sample without the partner dependency to establish an avatar baseline.
- 3
Connect Gemini Live API at the audio or session boundary described in the architecture section.
- 4
Verify audio format, pacing, interruption, reconnect, cleanup, and credential isolation.
- 5
Record versions, target devices, network conditions, failures, and rollback behavior before production.
Decision guidance
Best for and not best for
Best for
- Teams already committed to Gemini Live API
- Developers who want to keep the avatar layer separable from the conversation stack
Not best for
- Teams requiring an unverified integration to be treated as production-ready
- Buyers looking for a fully managed end-to-end avatar-video service
Evidence-aware assessment
Advantages and limitations
Advantages
- Adds a Gemini Live API-specific implementation decision instead of a generic provider list
- Keeps the Spatius rendering boundary explicit
- Provides a concrete validation and failure checklist
Limitations
- Gemini audio settings and the Spatius session sample rate must agree or be resampled explicitly. Also verify the current Live API model lifecycle before release.
- Current package and API versions still require release-time verification
- No first-party benchmark for this exact combined stack is included in the supplied evidence
Gemini audio settings and the Spatius session sample rate must agree or be resampled explicitly. Also verify the current Live API model lifecycle before release. Indexing this guide does not convert an architecture blueprint into a claimed native connector; run and document the validation checklist before production use.
Page-specific FAQ
Implementation questions
Is Gemini Live API a native Spatius connector?
The supplied evidence classifies this as a documented path. Recheck the linked first-party sources for the current support boundary.
What must be tested before production?
Credentials, audio access and format, sample rate, interruption, reconnect, backpressure, cleanup, privacy, versions, and target-device behavior.
Does this page include performance results?
No. It does not publish latency, FPS, bandwidth, or reliability numbers for this exact combined stack without a reproducible first-party test.
