Suggestions for an AI programming project?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around a research project for a C++ class that requires a 3D rendering using OpenGL. The project idea involves creating a 3D Pac-Man game where each ghost employs a different pathfinding algorithm. While the concept is generally well-received, concerns are raised about the gameplay experience, suggesting that a first-person perspective might be necessary to enhance playability. Alternatively, a demo mode is proposed as a simpler solution for the class presentation. Overall, the project idea is considered sensible, but adjustments may be needed to ensure it is practical and engaging.

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.
 
Dear Peeps I have posted a few questions about programing on this sectio of the PF forum. I want to ask you veterans how you folks learn program in assembly and about computer architecture for the x86 family. In addition to finish learning C, I am also reading the book From bits to Gates to C and Beyond. In the book, it uses the mini LC3 assembly language. I also have books on assembly programming and computer architecture. The few famous ones i have are Computer Organization and...
I have a quick questions. I am going through a book on C programming on my own. Afterwards, I plan to go through something call data structures and algorithms on my own also in C. I also need to learn C++, Matlab and for personal interest Haskell. For the two topic of data structures and algorithms, I understand there are standard ones across all programming languages. After learning it through C, what would be the biggest issue when trying to implement the same data...
