Newton

aid: newton
name: Newton
description: Newton is a Linux Foundation open source physics engine, contributed by Disney Research, NVIDIA, and Google DeepMind.
  Built on NVIDIA Warp and integrating MuJoCo Warp as a backend, Newton targets roboticists and simulation researchers, providing
  GPU-accelerated, differentiable, OpenUSD-compatible physics simulation for AI training, robotics, gaming, and scientific
  research.
