…physics simulator written in Jax. It includes Gym tasks such as Ant, Humanoid and more: https://github.com/google/brax It is not full MuJoCo but a good base to add more features. Aside from position based dynamics (xpbd) it features motion…

…the Brax team, basically accelerating a physics engine written in Python run on accelerators, see https://github.com/google/brax The entire physics step, including collision detection and physics solver, is jit compiled.
