Abstract

A simulator for simulating soft body deformation includes a display system, a user interface, and a controller. The controller includes one or more processors coupled to memory that stores instructions that when executed cause the system to perform operations. The operations include generating a simulated soft body having a shape represented, at least in part, by a plurality of nodes. The operations further include determining, with at least a first machine learning model, a displacement of individual nodes included in the plurality of nodes in response to a simulated force applied to the simulated soft body. The operations further include rendering a deformation of the simulated soft body in substantially real time in response to the simulated force based, at least in part, on the displacement.
