“The collision detection algorithm we developed serves as a crucial technological innovation, playing a significant role in the comprehensive three-dimensional expansion of V-KSTAR beyond just ...

The team used video game collision detection methods — which work by calculating the distance between two objects before they collide — as inspiration for the algorithm.

The chief challenge in designing a collision-detection algorithm, says Maxime Gariel, a postdoc in MIT's International Center for Air Transportation and lead author on the new paper, is limiting ...
