Proximity Detection is the computational process of determining the spatial distance and relative position between entities—users, objects, or agents—within a virtual or physical environment in real time. In metaverse and robotics contexts it underpins social-distance awareness, collision avoidance, interaction triggering, and context-sensitive content delivery. Implementations range from bounding-volume overlap tests and signed-distance fields in 3D engines to sensor-fusion pipelines combining lidar, ultrasound, and camera inputs in robotic systems.
