Pathfinder is a new evacuation simulator. Unlike flow-based or
cell-based models, Pathfinder uses techniques from current computer
science research to model the movement of individuals, building on
technology used in the gaming and computer graphics industries.
Pathfinder provides the tools necessary to make confident decisions
regarding building layout and fire protection system design. Multiple
simulation modes and customizable occupant properties let you easily
explore different scenarios, allowing calculation of conservative and
optimistic bounds on expected evacuation times.
Pathfinder is an agent-based simulator — each occupant uses a set of
individual parameters and makes decisions independently throughout the
course of the simulation.
In addition to an advanced pedestrian movement simulator, Pathfinder
includes an integrated user interface and 3D results visualization.
Pathfinder allows you to evaluate evacuation models more quickly and
produce more realistic graphics than with other simulators.
