Abstract

The modelling and simulation of autonomous pedestrians has important applications in real-time crowd and crisis simulations. With the increase in processing powers and dedicated graphics cards, more processing powers can now be allocated for the generation of realistic behaviours for individuals within the crowd. We have proposed a representation for autonomous agents that is aimed to generate some human-like behaviours. In particular, to generate smooth and realistic navigational behaviour such as human-like collision avoidance, we have also proposed a two tier navigation model for autonomous agents. Using the proposed model, a scene in a typical shopping mall has been created. Behaviours such as crowd avoidance and lane following have been observed from the simulation.
