KCD Kineo Collision Detector

KCD is a state-of-the-art collision detector. It works with a hierarchical architecture of heterogeneous data types, based on composite design pattern.

“It was important for us to rely on a collision detection which is both fast and robust” explains Eric Auschitzky, Nuclear BU Director. “We did a careful comparison of available options and selected KCD. KCD is the high efficiency collision detection solution from Kineo CAM. It comes as a software library, which allows an easy integration through its C++ programming API."  [Read More]
