This session explored Autonomous Agents — entities that make its own choices about how to act in its environment without influence from other entities.
The three principles that such entities have are :
1. limited ability to perceive its environment.
2. What to do with that perception? i.e., to calculate the action (Steering/ Force calculation)
3. Locomotion
Examples include wandering, seeking a target, path following, obstacle avoidance. Then, explored how group behaviors can be simulated by combining multiple steering behaviors according to local interactions between objects.
