Unit 7: Robotics Simulations with PyBullet 🤖
One of the major industries that use Reinforcement Learning is robotics. Unfortunately, having access to robot equipment is very expensive. Fortunately, some simulations exist to train Robots:
- PyBullet
- MuJoco
- Unity Simulations
We're going to use PyBullet today. And train two agents to walk:
- A bipedal walker 🦿
- A spider 🕸️
You'll then be able to compare your agent’s results with other classmates thanks to a leaderboard 🔥 👉 https://huggingface.co/spaces/chrisjay/Deep-Reinforcement-Learning-Leaderboard

We'll learn to use PyBullet environments and why we normalize input features.
Let's get started 🥳

How to make the most of this course
To make the most of the course, my advice is to:
- Participate in Discord and join a study group.
- Read multiple times the theory part and takes some notes
- Don’t just do the colab. When you learn something, try to change the environment, change the parameters and read the libraries' documentation. Have fun 🥳
- Struggling is a good thing in learning. It means that you start to build new skills. Deep RL is a complex topic and it takes time to understand. Try different approaches, use our additional readings, and exchange with classmates on discord.
