An early open-source version will be released by the end of 2025.
Nvidia, in collaboration with Disney Research and Google DeepMind, is developing Newton — a physics engine designed to help robots perform complex movements in real-world conditions.
Disney will be one of the first users of Newton, integrating the system into next-generation entertainment robots. Specifically, the engine will help control BDX droids in the style of "Star Wars," which could appear in theme parks as early as next year.
Newton will enable robots to interact more accurately with their environment and simulate movements when working with different materials. Nvidia plans to release an early version of the engine with open-source code by the end of 2025.
