Police Car Agents in the City

We will release a version next week on the win/mac platforms for those interested – the aim was to explore shortest path modelling of agents in Unity within an urban scene:
The concept was developed as part of our Masters course here in CASA, to explore the development of 3D interactive urban scenes…

Urban Ball – CityEngine and Unity on iOS

We have used our recent work on Unity and Agent Based modelling to create a simple app called ‘Urban Ball’. Development time so far is around a couple of days so the route from city modelling through to iOS app is remarkably short. Via some tweaked  physics and a touch interface linked to a to a ball (the target) we have a simple agent based model on the iPad.
The movie below shows the app so far:
We have been impressed with the rapid development path using Unity and the ability of the iPad to run city wide models complete with agents. Arguably we have completed a proof of concept here, in the next few weeks we will explore how much further we can go – perhaps to release our first free iPad/Android app….
