dm_control 1.0.44 updates the physics engine MuJoCo to 3.11.0 and introduces several new features. You can now simulate adhesive contacts (contacts that pull like magnets) and conveyor/treadmill effects via surface velocity. For rotational joints (e.g., ball joints), control signals now handle rotations beyond 180 degrees more smoothly. Additionally, preparations for future MIMO actuators split actuator counts into inputs, objects, and outputs.
Pink is a Python library for robot kinematics. This release fixes a critical bug where the braking-distance term in AccelerationLimit was incorrect for joints without configuration limits, such as continuous joints. It also updates the list of revolute-joint shortnames supported by ManipulabilityTask, and adds support for Python 3.13 and 3.14. New examples and dependencies are included.
OmniGibson is a 3D environment platform for robot simulation and interaction. v3.9.1 improves model downloading from Hugging Face for more stable resource access; adds PyTorch thread count configuration for performance tuning; fixes the R1Pro robot base velocity frame issue; and updates demo documentation.
