Re: [Algorithms] finding an optimal OBB

[Dave S. <Dav...@sd...>]

Yeah. Another $50 dollar book I need to buy
only for a reference.  I liked his old site
better.  :-(

I assume you read the paper on OBBTree's.
I don't have it with me or I'd give you the 
reference.

They talked about sampling the convex hull to
find a tighter fit bbox. 

I don't know what MgcContainment does, if that's
similar or not.
