ALGOVIVO PHYSICS LAB

Soft Creature Lab

Wake a neural creature and watch muscles, gravity, friction, and soft-body physics negotiate every step.

Preparing the simulation…
01

Six energies

Elasticity, muscles, gravity, terrain collision, friction, and inertia combine into one differentiable objective.

02

Real soft bodies

Every colored triangle deforms. The solver finds the next state through energy minimization rather than a canned animation.

03

Gait control

An oscillating controller contracts linked muscles in offset phases, turning deformation into locomotion.
