In this paper, we consider the problem of detecting the collision of m
oving objects in three-dimensional space. We develop two algorithms th
at use linear programming techniques to detect exact possible collisio
ns between the objects in both time and space when the objects are rep
resented as. polyedral sets in R(2) or R(3). The algorithms can handle
the case of a rigid body moving on a general path with simultaneous t
ranslation and rotation. Computational experience on the developed alg
orithms is also presented.
