Abstract

In this paper, we describe innovative approaches for the design of intelligent virtual environments (VE) for interactive problem solving. Thus, we propose to extend VEs to support constraint-based interaction through the use of Constraint Programming (CP) techniques. The aim of this paper is to argue for the need of CP integration in VEs and its high relevance in the 3D-objects layout problem. The user manipulation will be translated as incoming queries of the intelligent module (solver) which will generate a solution compatible with the design requirements. Thus, the task of the solver is to satisfy the constraints specified by the system in response to user interaction. In order to exhibit a high degree of visual richness and realism, the use of human-scale multi-modal 3D interaction techniques and tools is proposed.
