pixelux dmm (Digital Molecular Matter) plugin for maya

By December 14, 2009No Comments

DMM (Digital Molecular Matter) is pixelux’s solution to simulate material physics, or the dynamic behavior of objects made of actual materials. The DMM technology is capable of soft-body, plastically deforming (e.g., bending metal) and breakable objects all within the same system. This mix of multi materials in the same system are what distinguish DMM from other rigid-body systems, which are limited to idealized rigid materials and are unable to simulate the deformation and fracture of real-world objects with the kind of kinetic fidelity that makes things seem real. In other words, sh*t looks sweet!
