Originally, PhysX-enabled video games were to be accelerated by PhysX PPU (expansion maps developed by Ageia). However, following Nvidia's acquisition of Ageia, PhysX special cards were discontinued in favor of an API launched on CUDA-enabled GeForce GRAPHICS processors. In both cases, the hardware acceleration allowed it to unload physics calculations from the processor, allowing it to perform other tasks. PhysX and other mid-tech physics engines are used in the vast majority of modern video games because they free game developers from having to write their own code that implements classical mechanics (Newtonian physics) to make, for example, soft body dynamics. The story, known today as PhysX, originated as a physics simulation engine called NovodeX. The engine was developed by the Swiss company NovodeX AG, a spin-off of ETH in zurich. In 2004, Ageia acquired NovodeX AG and began hardware technology that could speed up physics calculations by helping the processor. Ageia is called PhysX technology, SDK has been renamed from NovodeX to PhysX, PhysX, the accelerator cards were called PPUs (Physics Processing Units). The first PhysX game was Bet On Soldier: Blood Sport (2005). In 2008, Ageia itself was acquired by graphic technology manufacturer Nvidia. Nvidia began to include hardware acceleration PhysX on its GeForce line of graphics cards and eventually withdrew support for Ageia GPUs. PhysX SDK 3.0 was released in May 2011 and represented a significant over-release of the SDK, resulting in improvements such as more efficient multi-read and a single code base for all supported platforms. At GDC 2015, Nvidia made the source code for PhysX available on GitHub, but required registration in developer.nvidia.com. The patented SDK was given to developers for free for both commercial and non-commercial use on Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS and Android platforms. On December 3, 2018, PhysX was made open source under a 3-use BSD license, but this change only applies to computer and mobile platforms. PhysX and SDK engine features are available for Microsoft Windows, macOS, Linux, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Xbox One, 15, Wii, iOS and Android. PhysX is a multi-machine SDK physics simulator. It supports the rigid dynamics of the body, the soft dynamics of the body (for example, tissue modeling, including tear and tissue pressure), rag dolls and character controllers, vehicle dynamics, particles and 3D fluid modeling. Hardware Acceleration (PC) Top screenshot shows how debris is modeled in Mafia II when PhysX is drawn to the highest level in the game's settings. The bottom screenshot shows a similar scene with PhysX turned to the lowest level. The PPU Physics Processing Unit (PPU) is a processor specifically designed to ease the load on the processor, in particular calculations related to physics. PhysX PPUs have been offered to consumers in PCI or PCIe forms from ASUS, BFG Technologies, Dell and ELSA Technology. Starting with 2.8.3 PhysX SDK, support for PPU cards has been discontinued and PPU cards are no longer produced. The last incarnation of the PhysX PPU standalone card developed by Ageia had about the same PhysX performance as the 9800GTX. After the acquisition of Nvidia Ageia, PhysX's development turned its back on PPU expansion maps and instead focused on the capabilities of GPGPU-based state-of-the-art GPUs. Modern GPUs are very effective at manipulating and displaying computer graphics, and their high parallel structure makes them more efficient than general-purpose processors to speed up physical modeling with PhysX. Any CUDA-ready GeForce graphics card (8-series or later GPU with a minimum of 32 cores and 256MB of dedicated graphics memory) can use PhysX without the need to install a special PhysX card. APEX Nvidia APEX APEX Technology a multi-platform scalable speaker platform to build around the PhysX SDK. It was first introduced in Mafia II in August 2010. APEX nvidia includes the following modules: APEX Destruction, APEX Clothing, APEX Particles, APEX Turbulence, APEX ForceField and formerly APEX Vegetation, which was suspended in 2011. From version 1.4.1 APEX SDK is removed. Nvidia FleX FleX is a particle-based particle modeling method for real-time visual effects. Traditionally, visual effects are created using a combination of elements created using specialized solvers for hard bodies, liquids, clothing, etc. Such unified physics solutions are a staple in the offline world of computer graphics, where tools such as Autodesk Maya's nCloth, and Lagoa Softimage are widely used. FleX's goal is to harness the capabilities of THE GPUs to forehand the capabilities of these standalone applications in real-time computer graphics. Criticized by Real World Technologies on July 5, 2010, Real World Technologies published an analysis of PhysX architecture. According to this analysis, most of the code used in PhysX applications at the time was based on x87 instructions without any multi-dark optimization. This can result in a significant drop in performance when you run the PhysX code on the processor. The article suggests that PhysX rewrite using SSE instructions can significantly reduce the performance discrepancy between the PhysX processor and the PhysX GPU. In response to real-world technology analysis, Mike Skolones, PhysX's product manager, said SSE support was left behind because most games are first developed for consoles and then ported to PCs. As a result, modern computers enter these games faster and better than consoles, even with little or no optimization. Nvidia's senior PR manager, Brian Del Rizzo, explained that many thousands of people are already available with the PhysX 2.x processor and that it was used by the developer. He also stated that automatic multi-read and SSE will be presented with version 3 PhysX SDK. PhysX SDK 3.0 was released in May 2011 and represented a significant over-release of the SDK, resulting in improvements such as more efficient multi-read and a single code base for all supported platforms. Use PhysX in video games See also: List of games with hardware accelerated support PhysX technology is used by gaming engines such as Unreal Engine (version 3 years), Unity, Gamebryo, Vision (version 6 years), Engine, As one of the few major physics engines, it is used in many games such as The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Warframe, Killing Floor 2, Fallout 4, Batman: Arkham Arkham BorderLands 2, etc. Most of these games use a processor to process physics simulations. Video games with additional hardware- accelerated PhysX support often include additional effects such as tear tissue, dynamic smoke or simulated particle debris. PhysX's other PhysX-enabled software includes: Active Worlds (AW), a 3D virtual reality platform with a customer, Windows, a 3D game development engine developed by Amazon (Autodesk 3ds Max), Autodesk Maya and Autodesk Softimage, computer animation kits (with DarkPHYSICS update), game-oriented programming language. , an integrated development environment to create interactive 3D graphics 3DMark06 Futuremark and Vantage benchmarking tools, Environment for robot control and simulation in Nvidia SuperSonic Sledge and Raging Rapids Ride, OGRE demo technology (via NxOgre wrapper), open source engine rendering (citation necessary) Physics Abstraction Layer, Physical Simulation API Abstraction System (it provides COLLADA and scyth physics editor support PhysX) that allows hydraulic fracturing and other simulation physics (citation required) the Physics Engine Assessment Laboratory, a tool designed to evaluate, compare and standard physics engines.
