gym-pusht

A gymnasium environment PushT.

Installation

Create a virtual environment with Python 3.10 and activate it, e.g. with miniconda:

conda create -y -n pusht python=3.10 && conda activate pusht

Install gym-pusht:

pip install gym-pusht

Quick start

# example.py
import gymnasium as gym
import gym_pusht

env = gym.make("gym_pusht/PushT-v0", render_mode="human")
observation, info = env.reset()

for _ in range(1000):
    action = env.action_space.sample()
    observation, reward, terminated, truncated, info = env.step(action)
    image = env.render()

    if terminated or truncated:
        observation, info = env.reset()

env.close()

Description

PushT environment.

The goal of the agent is to push the block to the goal zone. The agent is a circle and the block is a tee shape.

Action Space

The action space is continuous and consists of two values: [x, y]. The values are in the range [0, 512] and represent the target position of the agent.

Observation Space

If obs_type is set to state, the observation space is a 5-dimensional vector representing the state of the environment: [agent_x, agent_y, block_x, block_y, block_angle]. The values are in the range [0, 512] for the agent and block positions and [0, 2*pi] for the block angle.

If obs_type is set to pixels, the observation space is a 96x96 RGB image of the environment.

Rewards

The reward is the coverage of the block in the goal zone. The reward is 1.0 if the block is fully in the goal zone.

Success Criteria

The environment is considered solved if the block is at least 95% in the goal zone.

Starting State

The agent starts at a random position and the block starts at a random position and angle.

Episode Termination

The episode terminates when the block is at least 95% in the goal zone.

Arguments

>>> import gymnasium as gym
>>> import gym_pusht
>>> env = gym.make("gym_pusht/PushT-v0", obs_type="state", render_mode="rgb_array")
>>> env
<TimeLimit<OrderEnforcing<PassiveEnvChecker<PushTEnv<gym_pusht/PushT-v0>>>>>

• obs_type: (str) The observation type. Can be either state, pixels or pixels_agent_pos. Default is state.

• block_cog: (tuple) The center of gravity of the block if different from the center of mass. Default is None.

• damping: (float) The damping factor of the environment if different from 0. Default is None.

• render_mode: (str) The rendering mode. Can be either human or rgb_array. Default is rgb_array.

• observation_width: (int) The width of the observed image. Default is 96.

• observation_height: (int) The height of the observed image. Default is 96.

• visualization_width: (int) The width of the visualized image. Default is 680.

• visualization_height: (int) The height of the visualized image. Default is 680.

Reset Arguments

Passing the option options["reset_to_state"] will reset the environment to a specific state.

Warning

For legacy compatibility, the inner fonctionning has been preserved, and the state set is not the same as the the one passed in the argument.

>>> import gymnasium as gym
>>> import gym_pusht
>>> env = gym.make("gym_pusht/PushT-v0")
>>> state, _ = env.reset(options={"reset_to_state": [0.0, 10.0, 20.0, 30.0, 1.0]})
>>> state
array([ 0.      , 10.      , 57.866196, 50.686398,  1.      ],
        dtype=float32)
