Kamino: GPU-based Massively Parallel Simulation of Multi-Body Systems with Challenging Topologies

Description

We present Kamino, a GPU-based physics solver for massively parallel simulations of heterogeneous highly-coupled mechanical systems. Implemented in Python using NVIDIA Warp and integrated into the Newton framework, it enables the application of data-driven methods, such as large-scale reinforcement learning, to complex robotic systems that exhibit strongly coupled kinematic and dynamic constraints such as kinematic loops. The latter are often circumvented by practitioners; approximating the syst
