AIMY Evaluation and Target Shooting

Python 3.8 Code style: Black arXiv

This repository provides the evaluation code of the publication

"AIMY: An Open-source Table Tennis Ball Launcher for Versatile and High-fidelity Trajectory Generation"

accepted to ICRA 2023.

It contains scripts for recording, preprocessing and visualisation of evaluation data. Furthermore, we provide the suite for target shooting with a feed-forward neural network.

AIMY

AIMY is a custom-designed three-wheeled table tennis ball launcher designed for advancing table tennis robot research.

Dependencies

Basic dependencies:

pip install numpy, pandas, scipy, matplotlib, seaborn, pytest, h5py, tensorflow

Misc dependencies:
