# OMI Physics Extension for glTF

**[Planet Python](https://daily.dev/sources/planetpython)** · 1 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

A new Python package called omi_physics has been released on PyPI, implementing the OMI Physics extensions for glTF using NumPy. It provides a game engine-style physics simulation (not real-world physics) that closely follows the OMI glTF extension spec. The core is GPU-free but includes some GPGPU kernels for optimization beyond 10,000 objects. In practice, rendering performance in OpenGLContext drops below 60fps with more than ~300 objects. The code was largely written by Claude and is released under the MIT license.
