OBB question
Author
I have the local-to-world transform matrix for a model.
I also have the OBBtree for this model.
Now I want to implement the intersection algorithm of two OBB (A,B)
Supposing that both (fixed) OBB are given relative to the same coordinate system .
question:
An axis v is a separating axis if
| v * c | > | v * ha | + | v * hb |
when:
* : dot product
c: vector from A''s center to B''s center
ha: extent vector of A
hb: extent vector of B
v : potential separating axis
is correct the above-mentioned ???
If it is,
how would it be when both OBB has arbitrary rotation and translation?
thanks in advance.
(sorry for my bad english).
for AABB, with no arbitrary rotation
the format of the box is (Centre, Extent)
so, for boxes (OA, Vector(a0, a1, a2)) and (OB, Vector(b0, b1, b2))
c = OB - OA
r = |v . c|
ra = |v.x| * a0 + |v.y| * a1 + |v.z| * a2
rb = |v.x| * b0 + |v.y| * b1 + |v.z| * b2
v is a separating axis if r > (ra + rb)
so, for OBB, the format of the boxes are
(Centre, Extent, A0, A1, A2)
so for boxes (OA, Vector(a0, a1, a2), A0, A1, A2) and (OB, Vector(b0, b1, b2), B0, B1, B2)
C = OB - OA
r = |v . c|
ra = |v . A0| * a0 + |v . A1| * a1 + |v * A2| * a2
rb = |v . B0| * b0 + |v . B1| * b1 + |v * B2| * b2
v is a separating axis if r > (ra + rb)

(again, sorry for my bad english)
This doesn't work for me.
I have drawn everything to see what is wrong. But everything seems to be well .
This is what I am doing.
This image explains what I want to do.
Just for simplicity, I pass everything to world coordinate system.
hA = A_basis.transpose() * hA ;
hA = local_to_wold_A.getBasis() * hA; // only rotation
hA = B_basis.transpose() * hB ;
hA = local_to_wold_B.getBasis() * hB; // only rotation
centro_A = A_basis.transpose() * centro_A ;
centro_A = local_to_wold_A * centro_A ; // rotation and translation
centro_B = B_basis.transpose() * centro_B ;
centro_B = local_to_wold_B * centro_B ; // rotation and translation
// for the 3 eigen vectors of A in world coordinate system
... ??
// for the 3 eigen vectors of B in world coordinate system
... ??
//for the 9 cross product in world coordinate system
..... ??
I cannot see what is wrong !!!
(Clearly my math is not very good)

you can''t use ha and hb like this.
as you can see on the picture, for A, it''s right, but for B, you''d have to use -hb and project it on the axis.
each components of hb has to be in the opposite direction of the separation axis in test, and each components of A has to be oriented in the positive direction of the separation axis.
anyway, I''m not explaining it very well, but it''s not the way it works. what you could do, is take the min and max corners of the box when projected to the axis, to find the interval of the two boxes, and test intersection between the intervals.
the OBB interval calculations take advantage of the fact that the box is symetrical along it''s three base axes. so, the ''radius'' of the box along an axis is |v . A0| * a0 + |v . A1| * a1 + |v . A2| * a2, Vector(a0, a1, a2) being the extent of the box (a0, a1, a2 are all > 0), and A0, A1, A2 are the three unit orthogonal vectors that define the basis of the box.
you get these vectors by either extracting the rows of the matrices, or the columns.
so in the end, the code is actually a lot simpler than what you have. you don''t need all that funky transpose and object-to-world transforms.
that''s an example for a separation axis test. not exactly the same ago as yours or the one I presented, but close enough
