RoboPianist: Dexterous Piano Playing with Deep Reinforcement Learning

build docs PyPI Python Version PyPI version

Video

RoboPianist is a new benchmarking suite for high-dimensional control, targeted at testing high spatial and temporal precision, coordination, and planning, all with an underactuated system frequently making-and-breaking contacts. The proposed challenge is mastering the piano through bi-manual dexterity, using a pair of simulated anthropomorphic robot hands.

This codebase contains software and tasks for the benchmark, and is powered by MuJoCo.


Latest Updates


Getting Started

We've created an introductory Colab notebook that demonstrates how to use RoboPianist. It includes code for loading and customizing a piano playing task, and a demonstration of a pretrained policy playing a short snippet of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. Click the button below to get started!

Open In Colab

Installation

RoboPianist is supported on both Linux and macOS and can be installed with Python >= 3.8. We recommend using Miniconda to manage your Python environment.

Install from source

The recommended way to install this package is from source. Start by cloning the repository:

git clone https://github.com/google-research/robopianist.git && cd robopianist

Next, install the prerequisite dependencies:

git submodule init && git submodule update
bash scripts/install_deps.sh

Finally, create a new conda environment and install RoboPianist in editable mode:

conda create -n pianist python=3.10
conda activate pianist

pip install -e ".[dev]"

To test your installation, run make test and verify that all tests pass.

Install from PyPI

First, install the prerequisite dependencies:

bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/google-research/robopianist/main/scripts/install_deps.sh) --no-soundfonts

Next, create a new conda environment and install RoboPianist:

conda create -n pianist python=3.10
conda activate pianist

pip install --upgrade robopianist

Optional: Download additional soundfonts

We recommend installing additional soundfonts to improve the quality of the synthesized audio. You can easily do this using the RoboPianist CLI:

robopianist soundfont --download

For more soundfont-related commands, see docs/soundfonts.md.

MIDI Dataset

The PIG dataset cannot be redistributed on GitHub due to licensing restrictions. See docs/dataset for instructions on where to download it and how to preprocess it.

CLI

RoboPianist comes with a command line interface (CLI) that can be used to download additional soundfonts, play MIDI files, preprocess the PIG dataset, and more. For more information, see docs/cli.md.
