# Habitat Humanoids |

|
|
Habitat 3.0 provides support for diverse humanoid avatars, displaying different shapes an motions. Avatars are based on the [SMPL-X](https://smpl-x.is.tue.mpg.de/) body model format, a commonly used data-driven parametric human body model that provides a compact representation of 3D human shape and pose. |
|
|
|
This repository provides a set of stand-alone avatars and motion files to represent humanoids walking and reaching to objects in the Habitat simulator. However, you can also generate new humanoids using the SMPL-X code base, or use motions coming from motion capture or motion generation models. |
|
|
|
## Contents |
|
|
|
We provide a total of 12 textured avatars of neutral, female and male gender and covering different body shapes. For each avatar, we provide a motion file that allows to drive the avatar to walk in a scene, or reach out to objects, using a [controller](https://github.com/facebookresearch/habitat-lab/blob/main/habitat-lab/habitat/articulated_agent_controllers/humanoid_rearrange_controller.py). |
|
|
|
The folder structure is as follows: |
|
|
|
``` |
|
βββ habitat_humanoids |
|
β βββ neutral_0 |
|
| | βββ neutral_0.ao_config.json |
|
| | βββ neutral_0.glb |
|
| | βββ neutral_0_motion_data_smplx.pkl |
|
| | βββ neutral_0.urdf |
|
β βββ * |
|
β βββ walk_motion |
|
β | βββ CMU_10_04_stageii.npz |
|
``` |
|
|
|
Where neutral_0 corresponds to the folder of one of the textured avatars. |
|
|
|
- `neutral_0.ao_config.json`: contains a dictionary with information on how to link the avatar armature and skinning, and the semantic id of the avatar, when using a semantic sensor. |
|
- `neutral_0.glb`: contains the skinning and texture information. |
|
- `neutral_0_motion_data_smplx.pkl`: contains relevant motion data files, more information below. |
|
- `neutral_0.urdf`: contains the armature, built automatically from the SMPL-X body model. |
|
- `walk_motion/CMU_10_04_stageii.npz`: contains a clip file from AMASS, used to build our motion file. |
|
|
|
### Motion Data File |
|
|
|
For each avatar, we provide a dictionary stored in `*_motion_data_smplx.pkl` which contains information to animate the character to walk around a scene and reach out to different positions.In particular, the dictionary contains 3 keys to store this information. |
|
|
|
- `walk_motion`: contains a 130 frame clip of a person performing a walking cycle. In particular, the clip corresponds to the frames 300-430 of the file `CMU/10/10_04_stageii.npz` from AMASS dataset. We provide the raw data in this repository, released under a license detailed below. |
|
- `stop_pose`: contains a standing position, taken from s single frame from the motion clip above mentioned. |
|
- `left_hand`: Contains a grid of poses 48 generated using [VPoser](https://github.com/nghorbani/human_body_prior), where each pose is optimized to reach a given poisition in 3D. In [HumanoidRearrangeController](https://github.com/facebookresearch/habitat-lab/blob/main/habitat-lab/habitat/articulated_agent_controllers/humanoid_rearrange_controller.py), we provide code to interpolate over these poses to reach multiple 3D positions. |
|
- `right_hand`: Contains the same grid of poses to reach positions with the *right hand*. |

|
## Usage |
|
|
|
Clone this file under `data/`. We provide several files in the [habitat-lab repository](https://github.com/facebookresearch/habitat-lab) to instantiate and move the avatars around the scene. |
