I recently added simple collision detection to a scene. (And I do mean
simple!) However, if your requirements aren't very complex, the method that
I used was effective and fairly easy to implement. I'd be glad to describe
what I did if you're interested.
Regards,
Dave
P.S. - You may find some tips in Chris Colefax's Explode.inc file - he has
pieces of exploded objects bouncing off the floor.

If you have a bunch of spheres, then collision detection is easy, but
costly in parsing time.
I've been trying with boxes, but it hasn't been working out as well as
I'd hoped.
There is some information here:

Both my Object Exploder and Liquid Spray include files offer functions for
particle collisions with an arbitrary ground plane. Both files were created
for POV-Ray 3.0 originally (no macros, no file I/O, etc.), and so I used an
analytical, recursive while loop that allows each particle to bounce
multiple times before coming to rest (taking into account friction with the
ground plane).
For more generalised collision detection, Ron Parker's trace() function
(available in MegaPOV, will be in POV 3.5) should be a good start, although
a lot of POV scripting will still be required. It is something I personally
want to try my hand at, as part of a more comprehensive, generalised physics
simulation/approximation (see
http://www.geocities.com/ccolefax/projects.html)...

You are always pulling my fat out of the fire, Chris. :) I'll start right
away.
Thanks for all of your suggestions, guys.
