Suggestions for an AI programming project?

[morius]

Hi everyone.
I'm supposed to do a small research project for one of my C++ classes. The only requirement is that it can be rendered in 3D (opengl).
I wanted to do something AI related, like pathfinding or something.
I thought of making a 3D pacman with each ghost following a different pathfinding algorithm, but I'm not really sure.
Do you think that sounds like a good idea or should I do something else?

That's a pretty sensible project. I don't see any problem with it.

Though 3D pacman would be pretty hard to play unless it was first person or something. Might just want to stick with a demo-mode for class.
