The ability to accurately perform inside/outside determination in relation to three-dimensional (3D) non-convex shapes is an extremely important technology when analysing the structure of objects. However, because 3D shapes, inevitably have a large number of data points, considerable amount of time is required to analyse the shape; therefore, high-speed analytical methods have been established. Because methods that are generally used in games and virtual reality/augmented reality do not analyse structures related to the objects, they are capable of high-speed depiction of the objects. However, in cases wherein the structure itself needs to be analysed, it is necessary to accurately evaluate shapes regarding whether a particular point is inside or outside of the object. In this study, we employed an algorithm that uses solid angles to precisely analyse the 3D structure of objects. Given that potential problems emerge regarding processing speed when trigonometric functions are used when proforming inside/outside determination of solid angles, we parallelized the algorithm using Compute Unified Device Architecture to resolve these potential issues.
