DynamiX notes

Hi all! We got to know about a really interesting contest, The Imagine Cup. Check out their site on: Imagine CUP It's got a number of really interesting events such as Visual Gaming, which is something like AI-development. Here's what their site says about it:

"You are in-charge of programming the strategy and the behaviour of a team of microscopic robots (nanobots), to save Prof. Hoshimi. Different kinds of nanobots (nano-needles, nano-collector, nano-AI and more) live inside the body of the prof and travel through his blood vessels.

To accomplish your mission, you'll need to download a software dev kit (aka "Project Hoshimi files") that contains the game engine, sample projects, documentation and tutorials. The tutorial level I will guide you step by step in the creation of your first artificial intelligence that controls your team of nanobots. Following it will qualify you for Round 2."

This was Visual gaming in a nutshell. Check out the site for the other events:
