Qt Quick 3D Physics

Qt Quick 3D Physics provides a high-level API for physics simulation. It supports simulating interactive rigid bodies as well as static meshes and non-colliding bodies used for detecting overlaps. Every simulated body can have its own physical properties like mass, density and friction.

Using the Module

QML API

The QML types of the module are available through the QtQuick3D.Physics import. To use the types, add the following import statement to your .qml file:
