Title
Ray Shooting on Triangles in 3-Space
Abstract
We present a uniform approach to problems involving lines in3-space. This approach is based on mapping lines in R3into pointsand hyperplanes in 5-dimensional projective space (Plucker space).We obtain new results on the following problems:1. Preprocess n triangles so as to efficiently answer the query:"Given a ray, which is the first triangle hit?" (Ray-shootingproblem). We discuss the ray-shooting problem for both disjointand non-disjoint triangles.2. Construct the...
