# Newton Physics Engine **Entity class:** Embodiment **Integration priority:** P1 **Collections:** [[collections/Consciousness Continuity|Consciousness Continuity]] · [[collections/Neurotech|Neurotech]] · [[collections/Machine Succession|Machine Succession]] **Canonical source article:** [[articles/Mind Uploading and AI — The Host is Reusable and the Person is the Delta|Mind Uploading and AI — The Host is Reusable and the Person is the Delta]] ## Definition **Newton Physics Engine** — Disney Research + Google DeepMind + NVIDIA; OpenUSD/Warp physics for robot learning. This entry treats the technology or concept as a concrete part, precedent, or comparison within host-infrastructure analysis; it does not by itself establish consciousness transfer, personal continuity, or a company's intent to build either. <!-- BEGIN HOST RESIDUAL RELATIONSHIP GRAPH 2026-09-10 --> ## Relationships ### Host–residual infrastructure patch — 2026-09-10 **Collections:** [[collections/Consciousness Continuity|Consciousness Continuity]] · [[collections/Neurotech|Neurotech]] · [[collections/Machine Succession|Machine Succession]] **Canonical source article:** [[articles/Mind Uploading and AI — The Host is Reusable and the Person is the Delta|Mind Uploading and AI — The Host is Reusable and the Person is the Delta]] **Related acquisition source:** [[articles/Technologies for Consciousness Mapping and Transfer|Technologies for Consciousness Mapping and Transfer]] **Relationship source:** [[research/Mind Uploading and AI Host-Residual Ecosystem Relationship Graph - 2026-09-10|Mind Uploading and AI Host-Residual Ecosystem Relationship Graph — 2026-09-10]] #### Host-infrastructure integration Disney Research + Google DeepMind + NVIDIA; OpenUSD/Warp physics for robot learning. #### Outgoing typed edges - **HR-0254 — `built_on` → `NVIDIA Warp`** — **VERIFIED EXTERNAL**; evidence `WEB_NEWTON`.
