PxGjkQueryExt

Defined in include/extensions/PxGjkQueryExt.h

Structs

class PxGjkQueryExt

Pre-made support mapping for built-in convex geometry types.

Public Static Functions

static bool generateContacts(const PxGjkQuery::Support &a, const PxGjkQuery::Support &b, const PxTransform &poseA, const PxTransform &poseB, PxReal contactDistance, PxReal toleranceLength, PxContactBuffer &contactBuffer)

Generates a contact point between two shapes using GJK-EPA algorithm.

Parameters
  • a[in] Shape A support mapping

  • b[in] Shape B support mapping

  • poseA[in] Shape A transformation

  • poseB[in] Shape B transformation

  • contactDistance[in] The distance at which contacts begin to be generated between the shapes

  • toleranceLength[in] The toleranceLength. Used for scaling distance-based thresholds internally to produce appropriate results given simulations in different units

  • contactBuffer[out] A buffer to store the contact

Returns

True if there is a contact.
