AI2-THOR (The House Of inteRactions) is a near photo-realistic interactable framework for AI agents.

News

(9/2019) Version 2.1.0 update of the framework has been added. New object types have been added. New Initialization actions have been added. Segmentation image generation has been improved in all scenes.
(6/2019) Version 2.0 update of the AI2-THOR framework is now live! We have over quadrupled our action and object states, adding new actions that allow visually distinct state changes such as broken screens on electronics, shattered windows, breakable dishware, liquid fillable containers, cleanable dishware, messy and made beds and more! Along with these new state changes, objects have more physical properties like Temperature, Mass, and Salient Materials that are all reported back in object metadata. To combine all of these new properties and actions, new context sensitive interactions can now automatically change object states. This includes interactions like placing a dirty bowl under running sink water to clean it, placing a mug in a coffee machine to automatically fill it with coffee, putting out a lit candle by placing it in water, or placing an object over an active stove burner or in the fridge to change its temperature. Please see the full 2.0 release notes here to view details on all the changes and new features.
(3/2019) Introducing Version 1.0 of the AI2-THOR framework! This release includes a full rework of all Sim Objects and Scenes to have additional physics functionality and improved fidelity. Physics based interactions can now be modeled in the THOR environment in realistic ways like never before! Object collision when placed in receptacles, moveable receptacles that contain other objects, collision based object position randomization, Multi-Agent support— these are a few of the many exciting new features that come with this update. Please check the full 1.0 release notes here to view details on all the changes and new features.
(4/2018) We have released version 0.0.25 of AI2-THOR. The main changes include: upgrade to Unity 2017, performance optimization to improve frame rate, and various bug fixes. We have also added some physics functionalities. Please contact us for instructions.
(1/2018) If you need a docker version, please contact us so we provide you with the instructions. Our docker version is in beta mode.

Documentation

Please refer to the Documentation Page on the AI2-THOR website for information on Installation, API, Metadata, actions, object properties and other important framework information.

Unity Development

If you wish to make changes to the Unity scenes/assets you will need to install Unity Editor version 2018.3.6 for OSX (Linux Editor is currently in Beta) from Unity Download Archive. After making your desired changes using the Unity Editor you will need to build. To do this you must first exit the editor, then run the following commands from the ai2thor base directory. Individual scenes (the 3D models) can be found beneath the unity/Assets/Scenes directory - scenes are named FloorPlan###.

pip install invoke
invoke local-build

This will create a build beneath the directory 'unity/builds/local-build/thor-local-OSXIntel64.app'. To use this build in your code, make the following change:

controller = ai2thor.controller.Controller()
controller.local_executable_path = "<BASE_DIR>/unity/builds/local-build/thor-local-OSXIntel64.app/Contents/MacOS/thor-local-OSXIntel64"
controller.start()

Support

We have done our best to fix all bugs and issues. However, you might still encounter some bugs during navigation and interaction. We will be glad to fix the bugs. Please open issues for these and include the scene name as well as the event.metadata from the moment that the bug can be identified.
