Introduction

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

What is `fcl`

FCL is a library for performing three types of proximity queries on a pair of geometric models composed of triangles. * Collision detection optionally, all of the triangles that overlap. * Distance computation of models, i.e., the distance between the closest pair of points. * Tolerance verification farther than a tolerance distance. * Continuous collision detection overlap during the movement, and optionally, the time of contact. * Contact information detection, the contact information (including contact normals and contact points) can be returned optionally. fcl 0.6.1 5.fc34 x86_64 1.0 M fcl-0.6.1-5.fc34.src.rpm fedora Flexible Collision Library https BSD FCL is a library for performing three types of proximity queries on a pair of geometric models composed of triangles. * Collision detection optionally, all of the triangles that overlap. * Distance computation of models, i.e., the distance between the closest pair of points. * Tolerance verification farther than a tolerance distance. * Continuous collision detection overlap during the movement, and optionally, the time of contact. * Contact information detection, the contact information (including contact normals and contact points) can be returned optionally.
