|
|
|
Physics solvers tend to be very complex software. In the
|
|
|
|
past, I toyed around with physics solvers for different kinds of geometries, but
|
|
|
|
struggled to implement these algorithms in a way that was both convincing
|
|
|
|
and performant. The idea for Fishbowl came from a video by the creator
|
|
|
|
Pezzza. They describe the high-level implementation details of a Verlet
|
|
|
|
Integration solver. This approach caught my interest.

|
|
|
Pezza's work is very impressive, particularly the demonstration at the end
|
|
|
|
which proves the program is deterministic. However, the focus of Pezzza's
|
|
|
|
project was to create a performant real-time application. I was instead
|
|
|
|
interested in pre-rendered images and animations. I decided to expand the
|
|
|
|
one-off demonstration at the end of Pezzza's video into a fully fledged
|
|
|
|
app.
|
|
|
|
<h2 class="distinct"> Approach </h2>
|
|
|
|
At the center of any physics solver is the physics 'step', a fixed interval of
|
|
|
|
time where objects move and collide. The physics step of Fishbowl consists of five
|
|
|
|
distinct phases.

|
Because the program doesn't run in real time, simulating over one second
|
|
|
|
may take more or less than a second. Calculating a larger number of shorter
|
|
|
|
time steps will make the simulation more accurate, but will take longer to
|
|
|
|
process. Fishbowl uses an number of optimizations to reduce processing time.
|
|
|
|
By keeping the array of objects sorted from left to right, the number of collision
|
|
|
|
checks is significantly reduced. The rendering system is decoupled from the simulation,
|
|
|
|
and the two are pipelined together and run in parallel.
|
|
|
|
<h2 class="distinct"> Rendering </h2>
|
|
|
|
The method I used for drawing circles to a frame went through numerous iterations.
|
|
|
|
Rendering performance is a major bottleneck, and so it was important to do so in
|
|
|
|
parallel. After writing and benchmarking several software renderers, I landed on
|
|
|
|
WebGPU. While quite bloated, WebGPU provides a fast, low level, and cross platform
|
|
|
|
rendering API designed for async programs. This allows Fishbowl to easily integrate
|
|
|
|
with both my server, which is entirely async, and the simulation, which is mostly
|
|
|
|
synchronous. While I would have liked to use a bespoke solution, GPU accelerated
|
|
|
|
rendering is far too quick to realistically consider any other option.
|
|
|
|
<h2 class="distinct"> Try It Out </h2>
|
|
|
|
You can try out Fishbowl below, or download the CLI tool from my GitHub.
|
|
|
|
It works best on images that are roughly square and don't contain any text.
|
|
|
|
Keep in mind the web version below will be slower and generate lower quality
|
|
|
|
results than the native application, as it is being run on my home server with
|
|
|
|
limited resources.
