Boids-based simulation of the Hamtaro Circle – bringing algorithms to the Wota Pit
June 21 @ 11:00 pm - 12:00 am
Photo/Videography NOT Allowed
In this panel we present a method for recreating the Hamtaro Circle using a flocking simulation based on the Boids framework (Reynolds, 1987). We will provide a basic and accessible explanation of the Boids algorithm, a brief overview and history of the Hamtaro Circle and similar wotagei phenomena, and finally present our own methodology in an easily digestible manner.
