DiffuseLoco: Real-Time Legged Locomotion Control with Diffusion from Offline Datasets

This repository contains the source code for the paper:

DiffuseLoco: Real-Time Legged Locomotion Control with Diffusion from Offline Datasets

The Conference on Robot Learning (CoRL), 2024

Paper / Project Page

Codebase Structure

  1. Model Defination: diffusion_policy/diffusion_policy/model/diffusion/transformer_for_diffusion.py

  2. Evaluation Script: scripts/eval.py

  3. Config File: diffusion_policy/config_files/cyber_diffusion_policy_n=8.yaml

  4. Environment for evaluation and source policy training: legged_gym/envs/cyberdog2

  5. Environment Wrapper (RHC, Delayed Inputs, Uniform Obs Space): diffusion_policy/diffusion_policy/env_runner/cyber_runner.py

  6. Deploy on real robots (This section is not completed yet) : legged_gym/legged_gym/scripts and csrc and scripts/pytorch_save.py

Getting Started

First, create the conda environment:

conda create -n diffuseloco python=3.8

followed by

conda activate diffuseloco

Install necessary system packages:

sudo apt install cmake

Download required files and place them in DiffuseLoco root folder.

Then, install the python dependencies:

cd DiffuseLoco

pip install -r requirements.txt

Install IsaacGym for simulation environment:

Note: in the public repo, this should come from NVIDIA's official source. We provide a zip file for easier review purpose only.

unzip isaacgym.zip

cd isaacgym/python

pip install -e .

Finally, install the package

cd ../..

bash ./install.sh

Evaluate Pre-trained Checkpoints

Bipedal Walking Task

source env.sh

python ./scripts/eval.py --checkpoint=./cyberdog_final.ckpt --task=cyber2_stand

Hop Task

source env.sh

python ./scripts/eval.py --checkpoint=./cyberdog_final.ckpt --task=cyber2_hop

Bounce Task

source env.sh

python ./scripts/eval.py --checkpoint=./cyberdog_final.ckpt --task=cyber2_bounce

Walk Task

You will be able to see the probabilistic policy executing both trotting and pacing in different envs given the same command

source env.sh

python ./scripts/eval.py --checkpoint=./cyberdog_final.ckpt --task=cyber2_walk

Training

source env.sh

python scripts/train.py

Currently dataset generation is still pending.

Compatibility

The codebase is tested on the following systems:

System 1

  • NVIDIA RTX 4060M
  • Ubuntu 20.04
  • NVIDIA driver version: 535 (535.129.03)
  • CUDA version: 12.1.1
  • cuDNN version: 8.9.7 for CUDA 12.X
  • TensorRT version: 8.6 GA

System 2

  • NVIDIA RTX 4070
  • Ubuntu 22.04
  • NVIDIA driver version: 550 (550.90.07)
  • CUDA version: 12.4
  • cuDNN version: 8.9.7 for CUDA 12.4
  • TensorRT version: 10.3.0.26 GA

Accelerating for Real-Time Deployment (Optional for Simulation Env)

We use TensorRT to accelerate the policy inference and meet the real-time requirement.

Before installation, verify that the latest CUDA and cuDNN are installed on the system.

Download the "TensorRT 10.3 GA for Linux x86_64 and CUDA 12.0 to 12.5 TAR Package" and the "TensorRT 10.3 GA for Ubuntu 22.04 and CUDA 12.0 to 12.5 DEB local repo Package" installation package.

Install with the following commands:

cd ~/Downloads/
sudo dpkg -i ./nv-tensorrt-local-repo-ubuntu2204-10.3.0-cuda-12.5_1.0-1_amd64.deb
sudo cp /var/nv-tensorrt-local-repo-ubuntu2204-10.3.0-cuda-12.5/nv-tensorrt-local-620E7D29-keyring.gpg /usr/share/keyrings/
sudo apt update
sudo apt install nv-tensorrt-local-repo-ubuntu2204-10.3.0-cuda-12.5

We also need to link the libraries. Unpack the tar package:

cd ~/Downloads/
tar xzvf ./TensorRT-10.3.0.26.Linux.x86_64-gnu.cuda-12.5.tar.gz

Then. move the unpacked directory to the installation path (here, we will use $TRT_INSTALL_PATH), and add the following lines to bashrc

# TensorRT
export TRT_LIBPATH=$TRT_INSTALL_PATH/targets/x86_64-linux-gnu/lib/
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$TRT_INSTALL_PATH/lib/:$TRT_LIBPATH:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Finally, install the Python binding using the following command

cd $TRT_INSTALL_PATH/python/
pip install ./tensorrt-10.3.0-cp38-none-linux_x86_64.whl
