Course details
•
Pathfinding Fundamentals: This unit covers the basic concepts of pathfinding, including the A* algorithm, Dijkstra's algorithm, and the Manhattan distance. It also introduces the importance of pathfinding in AI game development. •
Graph Theory: This unit delves into the mathematical foundations of graph theory, which is essential for pathfinding. It covers concepts such as nodes, edges, and graph traversal algorithms. •
AI Game Development: This unit provides an overview of the AI game development process, including the use of pathfinding in games. It covers topics such as game design, programming languages, and game engines. •
A\* Algorithm: This unit focuses on the A\* algorithm, which is a popular pathfinding algorithm used in many AI applications. It covers the algorithm's strengths, weaknesses, and implementation details. •
Heuristics and Cost Functions: This unit explores the importance of heuristics and cost functions in pathfinding. It covers how to create effective heuristics and cost functions for different pathfinding problems. •
Bidirectional Search: This unit introduces the concept of bidirectional search, which is a pathfinding technique used to find the shortest path between two points in a graph. •
Any-Angle Movement: This unit covers the challenge of pathfinding in games with any-angle movement, where agents can move in any direction. It introduces techniques for handling this type of movement. •
Multi-Agent Pathfinding: This unit explores the pathfinding challenges of multi-agent systems, where multiple agents need to find paths in a shared environment. •
Real-Time Pathfinding: This unit focuses on the performance requirements of real-time pathfinding, including techniques for optimizing pathfinding for low-latency applications. •
Pathfinding in 3D Environments: This unit covers the pathfinding challenges of 3D environments, including techniques for handling obstacles, walls, and other obstacles.
