region of high detail is based on collision volume radius, speed of movement,

Angle Specifies the angle at which the camera looks at the avatar.

Default Collision Dialog Box
Use this dialog box to specify and save your preferred collision settings in a
3D workspace.
By default, Collision, Gravity, Auto Crouch, and Third Person view are
switched off. When you modify default collision settings, your changes do
not affect the currently opened Autodesk Navisworks file. They are used as
soon as you open a new Autodesk Navisworks file, or start a new Autodesk
Navisworks session.
Collision Select this check box to define a viewer as a collision volume in
Walk and Fly modes. As a result, a viewer acquires some mass, and cannot
pass through other objects, points, or lines in the Scene View.
NOTE Selecting this check box changes the rendering prioritization so that objects
around the viewer are displayed with much higher detail than normal. The size of
the region of high detail is based on collision volume radius and speed of
movement.
Gravity Select this check box to give a viewer some weight in Walk mode.
This option works in conjunction with Collision.
Auto Crouch Select this check box to enable a viewer to crouch under objects
that are too low to pass under in Walk mode. This option works in
conjunction with Collision.
