OpenNERO is a general research and education platform for artificial intelligence. The platform is based on a simulation and graphical display of a 3-D physical world that includes multiple agents with embedded sensors and effectors and multiple objects. The software also includes tools for defining and manipulating the environment, the task, and the agent algorithms. The OpenNERO software environment allows developing and testing new AI methods as well as demonstrating existing methods in a sophisticated and concrete simulation of the physical world.

An abstract of the OpenNERO demo presented at AIIDE-08 is here. The current version of the environment is maintained at Googlecode. An example machine learning game that serves as inspiration for OpenNERO is described the NERO page.
