A hitbox is an invisible shape commonly used in video games for real-time collision detection. It is a rectangle (in 2D games) or cuboid (in 3D) that is attached to and follows a point on a visible object. It is common for animated object to have a set of hitboxes attached to one moving part each to ensure accuracy during motion.[1]
Hitboxes are used to detect "one-way" collisions such as bullet impacts. They are unsuitable for the detection of collisions with feedback (e.g. bumping into a wall) due the difficulty experienced by both humans and AI in managing hitboxes' ever-changing locations; these sorts of collisions are typically handled with much simpler axis-aligned bounding boxes instead.

Companies place JavaScript files on their web servers which are linked to from a HTML script in the page code. The combination of the two makes a request from the data collection servers for each page viewed by a user. A cookie is placed on the users computer which contains a unique id. This unique id is passed with the request to the data collection servers. During the processing of the data Hitbox ties together the page views to get a perspective of how the user moved through the site. Other, custom information can be passed in the request as well as information from the HTTP header of the browser, such as referrer and browser details.
