VirtualHome-AIST

This is an extended VirtualHome based on VirtualHome v2.2 with some additional functions.

For more information about original VirtualHome v2.2, please see here.

What is New

  • We added actions that can be executed in the Unity simulator. That is, many motions not supported by the original VirtualHome can now be executed.
  • Several new cameras and three new camera modes have been added.
  • It is now possible to output JSON data in frame-by-frame.
  • The 2D bounding boxes of objects can now be output.
  • A convenient jupyter notebook is provided to run a large number of simulations based on the script data and save the results.
