About Vsim
Vsim is building a physics engine for creating interactive simulated environments in which robots can move, manipulate objects and learn from contact. Developers can vary geometry, materials, forces and environmental conditions while running many experiments without occupying or damaging physical hardware.
The platform supports policy training, evaluation and failure analysis before deployment to a real robot. By accelerating repeated physics-based trials, Vsim allows teams to explore more task variations, identify unstable behaviour and refine control policies earlier in the development cycle.
