Abstract: Consider an environment filled with polyhedral obstacles. The answer to a ray-shooting query is the first obstacle encountered by the ray. A simple way to answer ray-shooting queries is to triangulate space in a manner compatible with the obstacles, and then walk through the triangulation along the ray until the first obstacle is encountered. We suggest that the average walk length can be reduced by choosing a triangulation with weight (i.e., length in two dimensions or area in three... (Update)
