Abstract
The goal of this paper is to describe how to construct an integrated simulation system that integrates limited perception-based mapping with spatial reasoning, path planning, and human motion style in order for a virtual soldier to effectively communicate with other virtual solders and/or human participants in a simulation. Virtual human research often ignores or simplifies perception by using a full map (with omniscient perception). In addition, previous research used a placement node where virtual environment designers save in advance the required information. However, this paper also shows that the human-like movement behavior can be achieved by the integrated ECA system with the mapping that supports a spatial understanding and does not require the omniscient perception.
