The differentiable cutting simulator DiSECt is now open-source! Code and instructions are at github.com/NVlabs/DiSECt. We also release a dataset of force profiles, meshes, and node motions from high-quality Ansys LS-DYNA simulations (see links in the readme).

My #procedural wall toy now has arches & sorta-paths 🚀 That was trickier to setup than I had anticipated 😅 But hey, gotta get that sweet XP in the compute shader skill tree 🧙‍♀️ #rustlang 🦀 #opengl #screenshotsaturday

Here's a little update on my visual-programming-language-for-sound that runs in a browser project: pointersgonewild.com/2022/02/18/noi…

So I had this idea for an improvement to the way I render lines in Mars First Logistics. I've had a lot of people ask about how that works, so here's a (somewhat technical) thread about it and the improvement I recently made.

Do you know PEEL's PhysX edition ? This is scene 113 featuring a controllable Lego Technic Buggy made of rigid bodies and regular joints (no articulations). You can hide any of the parts to see the simulated mechanism underneath. Physics + Lego = 😍 github.com/Pierre-Terdima…

We're excited to present a new method to render Signed Distance Functions (SDFs) in a differentiable manner, enabling high-fidelity image-based shape reconstruction. This is joint work with Delio Vicini and Sebastien Speierer and will be presented at SIGGRAPH'22. (1/8)

Look, a Portal demake running on real Nintendo 64 hardware, it's open source too. They already have some of the most impressive features running. github.com/lambertjamesd/…

MuJoCo is fully open source! The fast, free physics simulator, designed for research, is now open for contributions. Browse, clone, and build from GitHub: dpmd.ai/mujoco-os More details ➡️dpmd.ai/open-sourcing-… #MuJoCo

Thought I would share a bit more about how my ice shader works (1/4) #madewithunity #shaders

If you want to start exploring the img2img capabilities of #stablediffusion I have created an open-source plugin for #krita

For fun, I trained a neural network to mimic a playable Pokémon overworld (web demo in the post) madebyoll.in/posts/game_emu…

This #StableDiffusion add-on for Blender looks amazing. @AI_Render renders an AI-generated image based on a text prompt and your scene in Blender. github.com/benrugg/AI-Ren…

PhysX 5 is open source now! sigmoid.social/web/@Pierre@ma… or direct github link: github.com/NVIDIA-Omniver…

Speaking of meshes, PhysX 5 supports mesh-vs-mesh interactions via SDFs (a GPU-only feature for now). The emerging motion in the following test is entirely driven by collisions/contacts (not e.g. by a dedicated joint).

I tried creating a proof-of-concept implementation of a ChatGPT-powered shader generator for Unity. github.com/keijiro/AIShad…

Jolt Physics got soft body physics today! There's still a lot of performance optimizations to be done, but you can start playing around with it! github.com/jrouwe/JoltPhy…

#SIGGRAPH2024 We present Vertex Block Descent (VBD), the NEXT simulator.: nearly zero-compromised, fast🚀🚀, massively parallel💻💻, convergent📉📉, and unconditionally stable💎💎. Project Page: ankachan.github.io/Projects/Verte… Code (coming soon): github.com/AnkaChan/Gaia

#SIGGRAPH2024 🥳🥳I've open-sourced the code for our Vertex Block Descent (VBD) paper as a part of Gaia: github.com/AnkaChan/Gaia This is a collaborative work with Ziheng Liu. Thanks for your interest in VBD and Gaia! I released it ahead of schedule for you!

Hey, don't "optimize" conditional moves with mix()+step(). Please stop advising that. Why: iquilezles.org/articles/gpuco…
