Abstract
In this paper we will outline the requirements
for a software platform supporting embodied conversational
agents.
These requirements encompass computational concerns as well as
presentation facilities, providing a suitably rich environment
for applications deploying conversational agents.
We will then propose a platform based on the
distributed logic programming language DLP and X3D,
the extensible Web3D format.
Three case studies will be described,
illustrating the potential of the DLP+X3D platform:
a multi-user game with autonomous players,
avatars commenting on rich media presentations,
and a gesture scripting language for humanoids
based on dynamic logic.
In conclusion, we will discuss related work and
review the evaluation criteria that pertain to the
deployment of embodied conversational agents
in rich media 3D environments.
