Usage

# for training metra
python legged_gym/scripts/train.py --headless --task=a1_tilt_metra

# for playing
python legged_gym/scripts/play.py --task=a1_tilt_metra --load_run={folder_path} --checkpoint=-1 

Repository Structure

  • legged_gym: contains the isaacgym environment and config files.
    • legged_gym/legged_gym/envs/a1/: contains all the training config files.
    • legged_gym/legged_gym/envs/base/: contains all the environment implementation.
    • legged_gym/legged_gym/utils/terrain/: contains the terrain generation code.
  • rsl_rl: contains the network module and algorithm implementation. You can copy this folder directly to your robot.
    • rsl_rl/rsl_rl/algorithms/: contains the algorithm implementation.
    • rsl_rl/rsl_rl/modules/: contains the network module implementation.

Training in Simulation

To install and run the code for training A1 in simulation, please clone this repository and follow the instructions in legged_gym/README.md.

Hardware Deployment

To deploy the trained model on your real robot, please follow the instructions in Deploy.md.

Trouble Shooting

If you cannot run the distillation part or all graphics computing goes to GPU 0 dispite you have multiple GPUs and have set the CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES, please use docker to isolate each GPU.

To Do (will be done before Nov 2023)

  • Go1 training configuration (not from scratch)
  • A1 deployment code
  • Go1 deployment code
