The AI Java program
The artificial intelligence Java applet allows one to understand how simple
computer AI can function. A small creature, represented by the blue dot, has
been placed inside a small arena. By selecting a logic system to the left,
the creature will change its intelligence accordingly. Some of the logic
systems will be affected by the position of the mouse pointer inside the
arena.
The creature can only move a certain distance each turn. Therefore, if it is
moving upward very quickly, it will not be able to move to the sides as fast.
This will make the creature take a more direct, realistic and smooth path.
