Detailed Description

Compute the minimal oriented bounding box for several 3D shapes.

Author:

Peter Vanroose

Date:

Given a 3D geometric object like a set of points, an ellipsoid, ... find the bounding box with the minimal volume that completely contains the given object. "Bounding box" is defined here as a Euclidean box (with mutually orthogonal rectangular faces), i.e., a vgl_orient_box_3d<T>.

The class vgl_orient_box_3d_operators is actually a kind of namespace: it is just a collection of static methods, all returning a minimal box.
