OgreBullet is a wrapper, which allows you to easily integrate Bullet Physics Engine into your project. Bullet is available [http://www.bulletphysics.com/Bullet/|here]
Currently the wrapper supports nearly all Bullet 2.64 features.

__What is Bullet?__
Bullet is a 3D Collision Detection and Rigid Body Dynamics Library for games and animation. 
Free for commercial use, including PlayStation 3, Open Source multiplatform C++ under the ZLib License. 
Discrete and continuous collision detection, integrated into Blender 3D and COLLADA 1.4 Physics tools support.

Just some of the features:

__Multi Platform support:__ 
Playstation 3, XBox 360, Wii, Win32, Linux, Mac OSX etc. 
Parallel optimizations for Cell SPU, multi-core 
Fully Open Source, ZLib license (free for commercial use) 
Used by several professional game companies in AAA titles on Playstation 3, XBox 360, Wii and PC.

__Supports various shape types:__ 
Convex Polyhedron, Box, Sphere, Cone, Cylinder, Capsule, Static Triangle Mesh, Heightfield.

__Single Queries:__ 
Closest Point/Normal/Distance 
Penetration Depth estimation 
Ray Cast 
Linear Cast / Swept Collision Test 
Experimental Continuous Collision Detection/Time of Impact (incl. Rotation)

__Optimizations:__ 
Sweep and Prune Broadphase 
Bounding Volume Hierarchy for Static Triangle Mesh (AABB tree) 
Allows re-use of graphics mesh, instead of duplicating (using index/stride)

__Dynamics Features:__ 
Framework with 2 different Constraint Solvers 
Sequential Impulse 
Projected Gauss Siedel (quickstep) 
Hinge, Point to Point Constraint, Twist Cone Constraint (ragdolls) 
Automatic de-activation (sleeping) 
Generic 6 Degree of Freedom Constraint , Motors, Limits 
LCP Warm starting of contact points
