Product Details

Learning to Fly (L2F) is an open source project that aims to train end-to-end control policies through deep reinforcement learning and quickly complete the training on consumer laptops. The main advantages of this project are that the training speed is fast and can be completed in a few seconds, and the trained strategy has good generalization ability and can be directly deployed to a real quadcopter. The L2F project relies on the RLtools deep reinforcement learning library and provides detailed installation and deployment guides, allowing researchers and developers to quickly get started and conduct experiments.

Main Features

1
Quick training: Quadcopter control strategy training can be completed on a laptop within 18 seconds.
2
End-to-end control: Provides complete strategy training from sensor input to control output.
3
Generalization ability: The trained strategy can be transferred to real-world quadcopters.
4
Deep reinforcement learning: relies on the RLtools library and uses deep reinforcement learning technology for strategy training.
5
Cross-platform support: Docker support is provided and can run on a variety of operating systems.
6
User interface: A web-based user interface is provided to facilitate monitoring of the training process.
7
Tensorboard log: Supports Tensorboard logging to facilitate analysis of training results.
8
Code is open source: All code is open source on GitHub to facilitate community contributions and improvements.

How to Use

1
1. Clone the repository locally: Use the git clone command to clone the learning-to-fly project to the local directory.
2
2. Install dependencies: Install the necessary dependency libraries according to the system environment (Ubuntu or macOS).
3
3. Build the project: Execute the cmake command in the project root directory to configure the build, and then use cmake --build to build the project.
4
4. Run training: Use the command line to run the training program, for example ./build/src/training_headless to start interfaceless training.
5
5. Use Tensorboard to view the results: After installing Tensorboard, use the tensorboard --logdir=logs command to view the training logs.
6
6. Deploy to a quadcopter: After training is completed, deploy the strategy to a real quadcopter for testing.
7
7. Use Docker (optional): You can also run the entire project through Docker and use the docker run command to start the Docker container.
