Physics processing unit

Una Unidad de procesamiento físico (en Inglés PPU) es un microprocesador diseñado especialmente para manejar cálculos físicos en computación. Su uso esta particularmente extendido en el campo de los motores fisicos y los video juegos. Algunos ejemplos de cálculos realizados por unidades de procesamiento físico son calculos de dinámica de cuerpos rígidos, detección de colisiones, dinámica de fluidos, simulación de vestuario y cabello (en computación gráfica), análisis de elementos finitos y fractura de objetos. El propósito de estas unidades de procesamiento fisico es liberar de carga (de procesamiento) a las CPU haciendo dichas operaciones.
