We propose a position-based approach for large-scale simulations of rigid bodies at interactive frame-rates. Our method solves positional constraints between rigid bodies and therefore integrates nicely with other position-based methods. Interaction of particles and rigid bodies through common constraints enables two-way coupling with deformables. The method exhibits exceptional performance and stability while being user-controllable and easy to implement. Various results demonstrate the practicability of our method for the resolution of collisions, contacts, stacking and joint constraints.
