Hardware it needs, as the project states it
Requires a CUDA-capable GPU, since it installs PyTorch with CUDA 11.8 and runs Isaac Gym, and Python 3.8. Real-robot deployment targets the Booster T1 robot.

It needs closed parts under their own terms: read them before any commercial use.

One part it needs is closed

  • Needs NVIDIA Isaac Gym: Booster Gym trains its policies in NVIDIA Isaac Gym, a closed NVIDIA download (README).

Overview

What it does: Robotheca's summary

  • Trains locomotion policies in parallelized Isaac Gym environments, with settings configured per task.
  • Tests trained policies in Isaac Gym and cross-tests them in MuJoCo to check generalization.
  • Exports trained models from .pth to JIT-optimized .pt files for deployment.
  • Deploys policies through the Booster Robotics SDK, first in Webots simulation and then on a physical robot.
  • Includes sim-to-real transfer settings and techniques meant to narrow the gap between simulation and reality.
  • Supports customizing environments and algorithms, and comes preconfigured for the Booster T1 robot.
