Virtual Humanoids: Let Them Be Autonomous without Losing Control
نویسنده
چکیده
There have been several efforts to build life-like autonomous creatures in virtual worlds, but only few of them have focused their intentions in presenting human-like autonomous creatures. In this paper we discuss the problem of building autonomous virtual humanoids with goal directed behaviors. We present the decision-making as a process compound of: goal achievement planning, dynamic belief management, evolving goals, internal states and confidence levels. As simulating real humans, we applied to our model theories of Humans’ Trust to be able to interact with the virtual humanoids and direct them at real time.

REVERIE - Real and Virtual Come Together in a Virtual Reality
REVERIE is a general-purpose tele-immersion system that enables individuals to interact in a shared 3D synthesized environment. It is a meeting place for virtual characters representing real participants and receptive virtual agents (autonomous humanoids). Participants observe this virtual reality from the dynamically changing point of view of their virtual embodiment (an avatar or a replicant)...
متن کاملVirtual humanoids and presence in virtual environments
The broad range of methods for virtual humanoids and their evaluation as avatars in virtual environments is handled in this thesis. The enabling methods, as well as experimental evaluations are the main contributions of the thesis. The central conclusion of the work can be summed up as the fact that virtual humanoids are beneficial for a number of interaction scenarios typically found in virtua...
متن کاملMaking H-Anim bodies
As the 3D Internet continues to grow, there will be an increasing need to represent human beings in online virtual environments. Achieving that goal will require the creation of libraries of interchangeable humanoids, as well as authoring tools that make it easy to create new humanoids and animate them in various ways. (...) This standard will allow humanoids created using authoring tools from ...
متن کاملAn Intelligent Architecture for Autonomous Virtual Agents Inspired by Onboard Autonomy
Intelligent virtual agents function in dynamic, uncertain, and uncontrolled environments, and animating them is a chaotic and error-prone task which demands high-level behavioral controllers to be able to adapt to failures at lower levels of the system. On the other hand, the conditions in which space robotic systems such as spacecraft and rovers operate, inspire by necessity, the development o...
متن کاملAutonomous reactive control for simulated humanoids
We present a framework for composing motor controllers into autonomous composite reactive behaviors for bipedal robots and autonomous, physically-simulated humanoids. A key contribution of our composition framework is an explicit model of the “preconditions” under which motor controllers are expected to function properly. Pre-conditions may be determined manually or learned automatically by alg...
