Decision brief
Habitat-Lab is a Python library for training embodied AI agents in virtual environments through deep and reinforcement learning techniques.
Good fit when
- Use Habitat-Lab when your project requires the simulation of complex environments for embodied AI tasks, such as navigation and interaction with objects
- If you are working on research projects involving robotics and computer vision where simulation is critical to test and validate your algorithms before physical trials, choose Habitat-Lab
Avoid when
- Avoid Habitat-Lab if the computational resources required for running the simulations exceed what is available or feasible in terms of cost
- Do not use Habitat-Lab when the project is solely focused on real-world data and does not necessitate virtual training environments, as setting up such a library might add unnecessary complexity
- Requirements:
- Min 8 GB RAM; Requires Docker; Python >=3.9 is required along with cmake>=3.14 for installation; For users working on machines equipped with NVIDIA GPUs, nvidia-docker installation is necessary to run the provided Docker containers
