coldet is 3D Collision Detection Library 3D Collision Detection Library

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install coldet on Fedora 34.

What is `coldet`

This library is an effort to provide a free collision detection library for generic polyhedra. Its purpose is mainly for 3D games where accurate detection is needed between two non-simple objects. Features * Works on any model, even polygon soups. * Uses bounding box hierarchies for fast detection. * Uses additional triangle intersection tests for 100% accuracy. * Provides (upon request) exact point of collision, plus the pair of triangles that collided. * Supports timeout setting, to limit detection time. * Model-Model collision test. * Ray-Model collision test. * Segment-Model collision test. * Sphere-Model collision test. * Ray-Sphere and Sphere-Sphere primitive collision tests. coldet 1.2 27.fc34 x86_64 45 k coldet-1.2-27.fc34.src.rpm fedora 3D Collision Detection Library http LGPLv2+ This library is an effort to provide a free collision detection library for generic polyhedra.
