| Presently, the virtual agents research community has very limited options of suitable virtual environments and prototyping tools. Instead of focusing on research, researchers are forced to spend time-consuming resources on creating their own simulation environments or develop solutions using 3rd party environments e.g. computer game engines.
One possibility to address these problems, is to provide the researchers with a prototyping tools like Pogamut and provide access to suitable 3D environments (e.g. Half Life 2, Virtual Battlespace 2 etc.) to them. The High Level Architecture standard (IEEE1516) represents the current industrial standard for interconnecting (not only) simulations with different internal representations. The goal of this thesis are as follows: 1) Investigate the HLA technology in the perspective of virtual agents research and the possibility of adapting HLA as means to connect AI decision making mechanisms and AI prototyping tools (e.g. Pogamut) to HLA capable virtual environments. 2) Propose an suitable middleware architecture based on HLA. 3) Create a proof of concept prototype based on the above mentioned architecture, where an external (from the hosting simulation?s point of view) mechanism would manage the decision making mechanism of the in-simulation present AI Avatars. |
