Cellumat3D is a tool for simulating and exploring cellular automata in 3D space. The application uses OpenGL and is fast enough to give a good impression why cellular automata are regarded as part of artificial life research.

Features:

• fast, efficient memory usage
• effectively unbound universe due to tile-based memory management
• free flight-simulator-like movement through universe
• support for editing/saving/loading rulesets

Platforms:

• Linux, Windows

• Introduction to cellular automata, its uses and artificial life research
• Wikipedia entry about cellular Automata
• Conway's Game of Life, the most famous cellular automaton
• Articles by Stephen Wolfram on cellular automata
• Overview of 3D cellular automata ressources on the web
