Abstract

Autonomous, graphically embodied agents are a versatile platform for  
information presentation and user interaction.  In this talk I will  
present an embodied agent capable of providing real-time commentary  
on a dynamic environment of many and frequent events.  The agent is  
implemented as a general framework designed to be on the one hand  
highly domain-independent and reusable across different domains, and  
on the other hand simple and homogeneous, avoiding problems arising  
from multiple interacting systems controlling a single character.  In  
its current version, the agent provides real-time commentary on a  
simulated horse race, for submission to the Gathering of Animated  
Lifelike Agents showcase at the 7th International Conference on  
Intelligent Virtual Agents in September.
