Abstract

We show how a recent collision detection method, which is based on the familiar sweep and prune concept, can gain further performance for the special class of simulations that only involves axis-aligned bounding boxes of the same size. The proposed modifications lead to a worst-case optimal output-sensitive algorithm in 2D. Furthermore, the experimental result shows that our method gives generous speedups in practice and that dynamic scenes with one million objects can be processed at interactive rates even on a laptop.
