How to run the simulations

Before beginning the training process for each scenario, let's recap what we learned in the previous chapter about visualization (RViz) and simulation (Gazebo) to establish a link with the learning process, which will make use of these tools and related scripts:

  1. To launch the visualization in RViz, you have to simply execute the following command:
T1 $ roslaunch gopigo3_model gopigo3_rviz.launch
  1. To launch the simulation in Gazebo, you may proceed in a similar manner using this single command:
T1 $ roslaunch gopigo3_gazebo gopigo3_world.launch
  1. Finally, to run the reinforcement learning task you first have to launch Gazebo – as explained in step 2 – but with the selected training environment, instead of the ...
