Hi everyone,

We’re excited to share that we’ve just launched a **Kickstarter campaign** to bring the **SOFA physics engine** to Unreal Engine 5:

👉 [Kickstarter Campaign link](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/epernod/sofa-unreal-hyper-realistic-physics-for-unreal-engine-5)

[SOFA](https://www.sofa-framework.org/) _(Simulate Open Framework Architecture)_ is an open-source C++ framework widely used in **biomechanics, medical simulation, soft robotics and digital twin**. It provides highly realistic **soft-body deformation** , **tissue modeling** , and **real-time physics**.

We’ve already integrated it into Unity, we are using it daily to power our high-fidelity surgical simulator in VR.

More info on our website: [https://infinytech3d.com/](https://infinytech3d.com/)

Now we want to bring this technology to **Unreal Engine 5** , where photorealistic rendering and native C++ performance unlock a new level of immersion and scientific accuracy.

🔥 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀  
This plugin will be open-source, and early backers will help shape development by choosing demo scenes and influencing feature priorities.

If you work in:  
• Surgical or biomechanics simulation  
• Soft robotics  
• XR & VR training  
• Unreal Engine development  
• Digital twin R&D  
…this project is for you.

Thanks for reading, if this aligns with your work or curiosity, we’d love your support or feedback.

Erik @ InfinyTech3D
