Steering behaviours

There are three total sketches:

  • Flocking behaviour
  • Wandering, pursuing and evading behaviour
  • Path following behaviour

How to run locally

  • Clone the repository
  • Open the index.html files of flocking behaviour, wanderer, pursuer and follower, and path following in Mozilla Firefox.

Flocking behaviour

Flocking behaviour The flocking behaviour is a combination of three behaviours:

  • Alignment: Boids try to align their velocity with the average velocity of their neighbours
  • Cohesion: Boids try to move towards the average position of their neighbours
  • Separation: Boids try to avoid colliding with their neighbours

Wandering, pursuing and evading behaviour

Wandering, pursuing and evading behaviour

  • The follower will move towards the mouse and evade the pursuer
  • The wanderer will wander and evade the follower
  • The pursuer will pursue the wanderer

Path following behaviour

Path following behaviour The boid will target a sequence of points and move towards them. When it reaches a point, it will move towards the next point in the sequence. Thus, path following is acheived.

Boids

Boids are the triangular creatures moving around the screen. They can do certain behaviours like:

  • Wander around the screen
  • Pursue another boid (predict where the target boid will be and move towards that point)
  • Evade another boid (predict where the target boid will be and move away from that point)
  • Flock with other boids (align, cohesion and separation)
  • Seek a target (move towards a point)
  • Arrive at a target (move towards a point and slow down as it gets closer)
  • Follow a path
