PEDSIM Demonstration Application
The Demo Application is intended a) to show what PedSim is able to do,
and b) to give a example implementation that uses libpedsim in a more
complex way than the small examples do.
The user can define his own scenario in a simple XML file
(see here) and
perform some simple pedestrian crowd experiments using that setup.
Most of the basic parameters of the simulation can be adjusted using the GUI.

| Release notes for version 20120205 |
There are basically two improvements worth mentioning in version 2.2:
- Demo App: Scenario definition read from file. It is now possible to define the
scenario of the simulation in an config file. Using a simple XML
syntax, it defines obstacles/walls, agents and waypoints. Simple
scenarios can be created manually. For larger scenarios, a graphical
editor is required, which does not exist yet. Alternatively, a
convertor which reads common CAD files would be nice to have, too. May
be for the next version.
- libpedsim/Demo App: Spatial representation of the agents in the scene is done now
using a quadtree. This improves performance if there are many agents.
Tests have shown that there must be more than 1000 agents that the
quadtree can make a difference. Using the GUI it is possible to
display the cells of the quadtree. If cells are created or destroyed,
the display is updated dynamically.
For a full list of available features, see the demo application
documentation pages.
