Physics forms the foundation of robotic simulation, enabling realistic modeling of motion and interaction. For tasks like locomotion and manipulation, simulators must handle complex dynamics such as contact forces and deformable objects. While most engines trade off speed for realism, Newton—a GPU-accelerated, open source simulator—is designed to do both. Newton 1.0 GA…
