  • Abstract
    In this work we propose a tool for path generation of animated beings (devices as robots, and humans) in a virtual environment. The focus of this application is the creation and edition of this path for guided tour in virtual museum. To validate this approach we present a virtual exhibition were a virtual guide following the generated path and conduces the virtual visitors in the museum.
