[vtkusers] Collision detection in vtk

[Lakshminarasimhan Raghupathi]

Hi Elvis,

The folks at UNC have devloped a whole lot of packages for collision
detection. The problem is which one to choose from! Here is the link to
their site http://www.cs.unc.edu/~geom/collide/. Also I would like to know
if anyone has done similar stuff with vtk ?

Cheers,

Lakshminarasimhan.

hi there,

is there a method for detecting collection between 2 polygonal surfaces
that performs in near-realtime?

sorry I'm not much of a help, but I'm just wondering if you know the
answer for this similar question.

thanx in advance,
