Abstract

ARéVi (in French, Atelier de Réalité Virtuelle) is a distributed virtual reality toolkit. Its kernel (a group of C++ classes) makes it possible to create cooperative and distributed virtual reality applications by minimizing the programming effort. ARéVi is built around a dynamic multiagent language: oRis. At any time, this language allows to stop the ongoing session, to add new entities (known or not when starting the session), to modify an entity or an entire entity family behavior. More generally, oRis gives the user the ability to interact with the agents by directly using their language, thus offering a way of immersion through the language.
