CONTACT: Arbitrary in-between motions for collision detection

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaperpeer-review

Abstract

A new approach to the collision detection problem was introduced in [8], that allows to detect collisions continuously and efficiently between polyhedral primitives (vertices, edges and faces). This paper extends the results of [8] to continuously detect collisions between pairs of complex polyhedral objects. A C++ library. CONTACT, has been developed. The tests of this library, reported here, seem to show that this approach is especially suited for precise real-time interaction in virtual environments.
