Putting the intelligence back into AI

Autodesk® Kynapse® is an artificial intelligence middleware that empowers game developers to build compelling character behaviors in video games. It offers high performance pathfinding within dynamic environments, and automated tools for generating AI data. Kynapse has been successfully integrated into over 100 high profile games of different genres. Using Kynapse, developers can help improve game play while reducing development costs and cutting time to market.

The Kynapse runtime is a high performance C++ library for handling real-time AI calculations. Using the Kynapse C++ API, developers can create more complex, more compelling behaviors for in-game characters.

“Our main philosophy with regards to development tools has always been that if it’s good and it already exists with the right price tag, why reinvent it? That’s why we chose to work with Kynapse as our AI engine for WET. In the game, the player confronts a large number of enemies. We needed a path-finding and location-awareness system to control decision making for these characters in a coherent manner.”

Martin Walker, CTO, Behavior Interactive (formerly A2M)
