Humans as Avatars in Smart and Playable Cities
2017 International Conference on Cyberworlds (CW), 2017We compare the behavior of avatars in videogames with the expected behavior of humans in smart environments, particularly smart urban environments. As a result of this comparison we conclude that many aspects of controlling an avatar in a game environment will also be seen in controlling human behavior in smart urban environments.
