ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus determine a line that passes through a set of rectangular, axial boxes defined by vertices in n-dimensional space in O(n) time using linear programming methods to obtain solutions, if they exist. The line is easily converted to a parametric representation by a suitable change of variables and is displayed in a two-dimensional representation. The method and apparatus are especially suited to the digital computer representation of objects as boxes and the problem of finding a line-of-sight through the boxes.
