Perceiving intentions and goals within virtual worlds

How the agents perceive their environment.

How the agents perceive their environment.

Agents perceive the environment through an “eye” whose visual field is shown here by the solid lines emanating from the agent. The agent can distinguish color and depth. Depth is inferred by from successive views of the same object (which can be either an obstacle, another agent, or food) obtained from different viewing angles.
