RaiSim is back: v2.8.0 brings ultra-fast accurate CPU simulation plus photorealistic rendering
ChongZzZhang · x · 2026-10-07
ChongZzZhang shared that the classic robot dynamics simulator RaiSim has released v2.8.0, headlined by "ultra-fast and accurate CPU-based simulation + photorealistic rendering."
The quoter, wangyenjen, recalls RaiSim being already well-known in the locomotion research community 2-3 years ago and is eager to try the new version. For legged locomotion researchers, combining high-precision CPU simulation with realistic rendering (useful for sim2real visual transfer) is a notable pairing.
