| Abstract | This paper presents a system in which cognitive models embedded in an abstract spatial device communicate with a game engine. The communication is decoupled by the introduction of a message broker. One benefit of the decoupling allows messaging resources, developed for controlling avatars in the game engine with cognitive models, to be reused as building blocks of a performance observer, and an end-user application for design and real time control of game entities. The system is presented in terms of the distribution of representations and processes across system components to support cognitive models and avatars' visual perceptions and movement in space. The system also supports an end-user interface independent of the game engine editor for the creation of environments such as rooms with various textures and sizes, for the insertion of objects and avatars, as well as changing objects’ position during game execution. |
