Softimage to Support AGEIA physX Technology
LOS ANGELES, Calif. – August 1, 2005 – At SIGGRAPH 2005, AGEIA™ Technologies, Inc., the pioneer in hardware-accelerated physics for games, today announced that Softimage Co., a subsidiary of Avid Technology, Inc, will support the AGEIA physX™ SDK with the upcoming release of SOFTIMAGE®|XSI® version 5.0, Avid’s award-winning digital character and visual effects software.
Artists have created some of the most memorable game characters using SOFTIMAGE|XSI software, and their real-time interactivity will increase with XSI v.5.0 by taking advantage of AGEIA’s state-of-the-art physics simulation engine for rigid body dynamics and high-precision actual-shape collision handling. In addition, Softimage plans to offer support for hardware-accelerated simulation using the AGEIA physX processor.
Sweet, maybe more reason to look forward to the PhysX! Check out the full press release here!
