Kynogon, a leading French AI company, has announced its support for Sony’s upcoming next-gen Playstation 3 system. Specifically, the company has announced its support for the Sony Computer Entertainment Inc.’s Tools & Middleware program for PlayStation 3. The AI system is Kynapse and it does offer many intriguing prospects.

Kynapse 4.0, which will support the PlayStation 3, introduces technology called “Large scale A.I.” The new technology is meant to address specific AI needs, such as existing algorithms limitations when dealing with large, detailed, terrains and huge numbers of NPCs; handling megabytes of AI data at runtime; getting NPCs to understand their environment topographically, and how to take advantage of the PS3 architecture.
