Collision Detection Course materials / Slides

Post by MShonoda »

Hello,

I am new here - (level of knowledge: ~ beginner), and I am interested to learn more about Physics simulation and Collision detection techniques and methods.

In SIGGRAPH - I found this course:Recent Advances in Real-Time Collision and Proximity Computations for Games and Simulations
[Link http://www.siggraph.org/s2010/for_attendees/courses ]

I would appreciate if anyone could share the materials/slides of that course [or any other related course(s)] here in the forum.

Thanks!
~ Magdy

That material is not beginner level.
Check this page for some material written by Erwin.
http://realtimecollisiondetection.net/pubs/

That book is also good to learn all the needed concepts.

This page hosts the slides for that course: http://tclab.kaist.ac.kr/~sungeui/Collision_tutorial/

I haven't read them yet so I can't comment, but if you're a beginner than I would also definitely recommend Ericson's book as it's an excellent overview with lots of great stuff in it.
