Master Thesis Closed environment simulation tools for computer graphics(2004) Rapaka, ManojSolid objects in the real world do not pass through each other when they collide. Enforcing this property of "solidnesf' is important in many interactive graphics applications and using solidness makes the virtual environment feel much more real and believable. This thesis performs a comparison of collision detection algorithms for 3D objects. The thesis is divided into chapters. Ill The first chapter - Introduction shortly explains the problem of collision detection, why collision detection algorithms are needed and different approaches to tackle it in short The second chapter helps by providing some background knowledge of some methods. The methods include Appropriate Bounding Boxes, Bounding Box Overlap Testing Etc. The third chapter gets into some detail with some algorithms based on bounding volumes while the fourth and fifth chapters providing a fair detail of the algorithms based on the closest pair of points and features based algorithms respectively. All the algorithms dealt with in the different chapters in the thesis leads us to the sixth chapter entitled Advantages & Disadvantages where we provide a comparison of the algorithms with different aspects taken into consideration
