Pogamut 2 Platform for fast development of the cognitive agents inside 3D environment Jakub Gemrot, Rudolf Kadlec, Michal Bída, Ondřej Burkert, Jan Havlíček, Cyril Brom Faculty of mathematics and physics Charles University at Prague January
What are the guys from Prague doing? human-like agents in 3D enviroments navigation in virtual reality, computer games, virtual storytelling available tools or platform insufficient
Big picture… what is Pogamut 2 ? platform for fast development of the cognitive agents testbed for cognitive architectures providing environment, problems and agent stubs hard to make good 3D world simulators => computer games
Unreal Tournament Extensible and adaptable 3D engine.
Community driven Strong community, a lot of free and quality materials.
Faces of the Pogamut 2 Modular architecture I ntegrate d D evelopment E nvironment NetBeans plugin (Java 1.6) Easy to connect existing planners UT2004 powered
Architecture Simulates the world Exports information Translating text messages to java objects Model of the agent EPIC® Our adaptation of Gamebots …… our own contribution ……
