## Health v2 (maintenance only)
Score: 77/100 (v2, computed 2026-09-02T17:46:02.011165+00:00)
- activity 100, release rhythm 35, longevity 100
- inputs: {"age_days": 3758, "days_push": 2, "days_rel": null, "gap_med": null, "n_releases_24m": 0}
- flags: no_releases
- formula: round(0.45*activity + 0.35*rhythm + 0.20*longevity); archived -> min(score, 10)

## What it is
A curated awesome-list of collision detection libraries, algorithms, papers, books, and articles. It catalogs active and inactive libraries for collision, distance, and proximity queries across many languages.

## Use cases
- find a collision detection library for my game engine
- compare physics collision libraries for robotics simulation
- learn GJK and EPA algorithms for convex shape collision
- find papers on continuous collision detection
- discover 2D and 3D distance query libraries in Rust or C#
- research broadphase and narrowphase algorithms

## When to choose
- you need to survey the landscape of collision detection libraries before picking one
- you want academic papers, books, and articles on collision algorithms
- you need language-specific options across C++, C#, Rust, and more

## When to avoid
- you need an actual collision detection implementation rather than a list of links
- you want a maintained software tool with support and updates

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: game-engine, simulation, graphics
- domain: simulation, robotics, graphics, awesome-lists
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: collision-detection, curated-list, physics, distance-queries, gjk, resources, game-development
