Total Immersion Software selects Kynapse for DARPA's simulation platform RealWorld

Paris/France, Alameda/California-US - November 26, 2007 - Kynogon, the leader in Artificial Intelligence solutions for the game and simulation industries, announces today that Total Immersion Software has selected Kynapse as its AI middleware solution for the RealWorld simulation platform.

RealWorld, developed by Total Immersion Software under contract to the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), delivers an intelligent tool suite providing drag and drop ease to rapidly create simulations so real that it can be used to train teams of professionals to handle complex situations such as military missions, rescue operations, and natural disasters.

"We have been very impressed by the Total Immersion Software vision. They perfectly combine military expertise and gaming technologies to reach the ambitious goals of "next generation" military simulations," says Pierre Pontevia, CTO of Kynogon. "We expect our automatic path data generator to contribute highly to one of the most ambitious goals of RealWorld: the rapid and low-cost generation of simulation scenarios for real-life mission rehearsal."

"Adding the AI capabilities of Kynapse to our RealWorld platform will help the users create quickly highly realistic behaviours and complex scenarios" said Pete Bonanni, CEO of Total Immersion Software. "It is one more essential step in our strategy to bring the best-in-class technology from the video game industry to the serious game arena."
