A lightweight, pure-Python mobile robot simulator designed for experiments in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning, especially for Jupyter Notebooks

Overview

aitk.robots

PyPI version CI build status

A lightweight Python robot simulator for JupyterLab, Notebooks, and other Python environments.

Goals

  1. A lightweight mobile robotics simulator
  2. Usable in the classroom, research, or exploration
  3. Explore wheeled robots with range, cameras, smell, and light sensors
  4. Operate quickly without a huge amount of resources
  5. Create reproducible experiments
  6. Designed for exposition, experimentation, and analysis
  7. Sensors designed for somewhat realistic problems (such as image recognition)
  8. Especially designed to work easily with Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence systems

Installation

For the core operations, you will need to install just aitk.robots:

pip install aitk.robots

To use the Jupyter enhancements, you'll also need the browser-based extensions. You can install those with:

jupyter labextension install @jupyter-widgets/jupyterlab-manager

If not in a conda environment, then you will also need to:

jupyter nbextension enable --py widgetsnbextension

  • View of camera's width in watched world does not change when width is changed

    View of camera's width in watched world does not change when width is changed

    I'm not sure if this is an important issue, but when you change a robot's camera width from 256 to 64, for example, the view of the robot in a watched world (the lines that trace the camera's view) don't change.

  • Update robot.py

    Update robot.py

    Minor wording changes for clarity to robot movement commands "amount" -> "speed". Also added clarity to robot constructor parameter color.

  • Checklist for 1.0 release

    Checklist for 1.0 release

    • [x] robot's camera can see a bulb through a wall
    • [x] smell sensors and light sensors both show up as small circles on the robot; makes it hard to distinguish between the two. Perhaps the smell sensors could be squares?
    • [x] As a robot equipped with a camera approaches food, when it is quite close to the food it becomes invisible (not showing up in the image).
    • [x] device constructors should raise exception when given an unknown parameter
    • [x] single-line wall issues: don't block smell, don't save with config
    • [x] watched views should have a blue border
    • [x] need to test GroundCamera, pen_up() and pen_down()
    • [x] draw light in world (top-down view) so that it hits walls rather than drawing under them
    • [x] bring docs up to date
    • [ ] Colab issues
      • [x] no-joystick button grid is overlapping
      • [ ] joystick control in colab
    • [x] Recorder issues
      • [x] recording should use max_trace_length
      • [x] might be an issue with recorder.get_trace() to get a long trace
      • [x] smells/food and bulb on/off aren't integrated with recorder
      • [x] recorder doesn't play last step
    • [ ] why does "Resetting seed" show an increasing number of times?
