Jim, I am not a software developer/engineer, but since game developers (especially first-person-shooters) have been using collision avoidance for years there must be a way to accomplish what you need.

Maybe you've hit a wall and it is time to ask for some outside help. There must be a software developer's manual or a college course available somewhere that could explain the process? Whatever happens and no matter how long it takes we are rooting for your success.

Good luck.
