SocialBot

A python environment for developing interactive learning agent with language communication ability.

Install dependency

SocialBot is built on top of Gazebo simulator. You need to install Gazebo first using the following command:

curl -sSL http://get.gazebosim.org | sh

You also need to install the following packages:

pip3 install numpy matplotlib gym
apt install python3-tk

To compile

cd REPO_ROOT
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make -j
cd REPO_ROOT
pip3 install -e .

To run test

cd REPO_ROOT/examples
python3 test_simple_navigation.py

To see the graphics, you can open another terminal and run gzclient

Trouble shooting

You need to make sure the python you use matches the python found by cmake. You can check this by looking at REPO_ROOT/build/CMakeCache.txt
