This would be only the case if I were to use a sensable haptic device, or am I wrong? So the collision detection is taking place in the openhaptics toolkit by sensable which is , as far as I know, not open source.
I on my part am developing a haptic device myselfe and aim at an interface for its control with worldviz. So I cant rely on the openhaptics lib by sensable...
So I guess I need to deal with the collision detection and calculation of the forces proportional to the penetration depth myselfe?
