This is the companion site for the book Real-Time Collision Detection by Christer Ericson (Morgan Kaufmann, 2005).
Written by an expert in the game industry, Christer Ericson's new book is a comprehensive guide to the components of efficient real-time collision detection systems.
The role of real-time collision detection as part of a safety system in telerobotics applications is discussed. You can find an errata linked from the left of the screen.
We survey a number of proposed collision detection systems. Not only are the fundamental algorithms explained clearly and in detail, but Ericson's book covers crucial implementation issues, including geometric and numeric robustness and cache-efficient implementations of the algorithms. The book provides the tools and know-how needed to implement industrial-strength collision detection for the highly detailed dynamic environments of applications such as 3D games, virtual reality applications, and physical simulators.Of the many topics covered,
