Does anyone know of a good algorithm for calculating the volume of a 3D minimum enclosing convex hull? I know that in 2D there is a function in python to do this, but I haven't seen one for 3D objects.
My thought would be to simply calculate the volume as ((maxX-minX)*(maxY-minY)*(maxZ-minZ)), however this doesn't seem to be very accurate.
