NVIDIA plans to open source the world's most advanced physics engine Newton in July

Nvidia CEO Huang Renxun stated that manufacturing robots in the physical world is "unrealistic" and we must train them in a virtual world that follows the laws of physics. We have collaborated with DeepMind and Disney Research to develop Newton, the world's most advanced physics engine, and plan to open source it in July. Newton fully supports GPU acceleration, has high differentiability and ultra real time operational capabilities, and can achieve effective learning through experience. We are integrating the physics engine into Nvidia's ISAAC simulator, which will enable us to bring these robots to life in a realistic way.
