Physical AI models enable robots to autonomously perceive, interpret, reason, and interact with the real world. Accelerated computing and simulations are key to developing the next generation of robotics. Physics plays a crucial role in robotic simulation, providing the foundation for accurate virtual representations of robot behavior and interactions within realistic environments. With these simulators,โ€ฆ

Where can one find a link for Newton? is it on GitHub or else where?

I was asking the same question, too.

How can I download the source code about the Newton?

You can already get the MJWarp simulator of Newton here: GitHub - google-deepmind/mujoco_warp: GPU-optimized version of the MuJoCo physics simulator, designed for NVIDIA hardware.

Is it possible to simulate something like this: https://youtu.be/y1T5EaM3zhI?si=lCW1pPfzMSewZv2n&t=123
Itยดs a drilling robot especially for granular/ sand material.
