Abstract
This paper examines the implementation and
efficacy of impostor-based techniques on smallscreen
devices, and compares their effectiveness
with that of the same techniques when used
on desktop computers. Firstly, a real-time
computer game has been implemented on a
Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), featuring
animated humans in a virtual city. Secondly?in
order to examine the potential of impostors on
future, more advanced small screen devices?
psychophysical experiments were conducted.
The results suggest that just as for PC-based systems,
impostors are a useful technique for crowd
and urban simulation on handheld devices.
