Agent-Aided Collaborative Virtual Environments Over HLA/RTI
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper introduces a Collaborative Virtual Environment (CVE) system over the Internet. A Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) 97-based user interface is developed to permit users to navigate around the virtual world. Voice-enabled interactive agents provide a more natural interface to help users interact with each other and with the virtual world. Real-time interactions between the entities in this environment are implemented over an upcoming IEEE standard for distributed simulations, called the Run-Time Infrastructure (RTI) of the High Level Architecture (HLA). For this, a Java adapter is developed to ensure the inter-operations between the VRML environments and HLA/RTI. An application to e-commerce is highlighted.

The Extensible Run-Time Infrastructure, or XRTI, is an experimental implementation of proposed improvements to the High Level Architecture (HLA) [Kapolka 03]. The HLA, a middleware standard for sharing information between distributed simulation components, can act as the communications infrastructure for an enduring network of shared virtual worlds, but only if several of its shortcomings are r...

متن کاملRealizing a Platform for Collaborative Virtual Environments based on the High Level Architecture
Collaborative Virtual Environments are of increasing interest to different user communities to support collaborative tasks of geographically dispersed teams. These tasks not only involve communication through speech and document exchange, but may also require some three-dimensional view on or interaction with the topic of interest. In this way discussion on design, architecture or integration c...
متن کاملA Grammatical Approach to Autonomous Design in 3d Virtual Worlds Using Generative Design Agents
3D virtual worlds are networked environments designed using the place metaphor. 3D virtual worlds as Computer-aided Design (CAD) tools have shown promising potentials in areas such as design simulation, distant team works as well as interdisciplinary design collaboration. Recent developments in collaborative 3D virtual worlds focus on interactivity, flexibility and adaptability. Rather than cre...
