Abstract
3D collision detection and modeling techniques can be used in the development of haptic rendering schemes which can be used, for example, in surgical training, virtual assembly, or games. Based on a fast collision detection algorithm (RAPID) and 3D object representation, a practical haptic rendering system has been developed. A sub-system determines detailed collision information. Simulation results are presented to demonstrate the practicality of our results.
