As we reported earlier, BioGraphic Technologies is developing AI.implant for Animation, a software that enables 3ds max users to create and simulate a wide variety of intelligent and autonomous animated characters: from flocks of birds and schools of fish to fully interactive battle scenes involving hundreds of soldiers. AI.implant for Animation can be used for gross motion control or close-up animation, where it can drive character-to-character interactions. The Max flavor of AI.implant for Animation is tightly integrated with 3ds max and offers full support for MaxScript. The software is currently in beta testing: for more information check out the features and sample animations pages at AI-Implant.com or request an evaluation version.
