Collision Detectors

1. Create a new collision detector.
2. Selection vs World collision detector. This compares the selected geometry against the geometries in the 3D world.
3. Added collision detectors. These detectors check collisions between A and B geometries.
4. Detector on/off button.
5. Remove detector.
6. Properties:
• Name Name of this collision detector.
• Detect Collision
• First Record the first detected collision.
• All Record all cases of detected collisions.
• Collision Tolerance Collision detection threshold distance.
• Show Minimum Distance Show the minimum distance between collision.
• Ignore Closest Nodes Ignore collisions between immediate nodes that make up a parent-child pair in a component.
• Ignore Different Components Ignore collisions between nodes. Each node in different components that are attached together e.g. Gripper attached to Robot.
7. A and B geometries for collision check. A and B can include a set of components from the 3D world.
8. Add the selected component to A or B geometries.
9. Material of the A or B geometries when the collision happens.
10. Single component in the A or B geometries. It can be included or excluded from the check box.
11. Node of a component. It can be included or excluded from the check box.
