# REDMAX: Efficient & Flexible Approach for Articulated Dynamics

**NEW**: We now have an _analytically differentiable_ version! See the the [notes](notes.pdf) and the [reference MATLAB implementation](matlab-diff).

Redmax was also used for [differentiable hand simulation](http://diffhand.csail.mit.edu), which was presented at RSS 2021. The associated [github repository](https://github.com/eanswer/DiffHand) contains the C++ implementation of redmax with Python bindings.

### Contents

- `notes.pdf`: An extensive writeup with details on:
  - Maximal coordinates
  - Reduced coordinates
  - Analytical derivatives
  - Implicit integration
  - Adjoint method
- `matlab-diff`: Object-oriented MATLAB implementation of differentiable redmax
  - Fully implicit time integration: BDF1 and BDF2
  - Parameter optimization with the adjoint method
  - Frictional contact with the ground [[Geilinger et al. 2020]](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2007.00987.pdf)
- `matlab-simple`: Simpler object-oriented MATLAB implementation for getting started
- `matlab`: Object-oriented MATLAB implementation with many features, including:
  - Recursive hybrid dynamics (Featherstone's algorithm) for comparison
  - Time integration using `ode45` or `euler`
  - Frictional dynamics with Bilateral Staggered Projections
  - Spline curve and surface joints [[Lee and Terzopoulos 2008]](http://web.cs.ucla.edu/~dt//papers/siggraph08/siggraph08.pdf)
- `c++`: C++ implementation including Projected Block Jacobi Preconditioner
