How can I compute programatically the distance between a point and a quadric (a surface defined by a quadratic polynomial, for example a sphere, a cone, or a hyperboloid)?

How can compute that distance after applying transformation/rotation to the quaternion?

    The (most efficient) method highly depends on which quadric surface you're considering. Please specify what particular quadrics are you dealing with...2011-07-27
