Supporting PBR

The feature, motivation and pitch

Hi,

It would be great if Mujoco could start supporting different texture pbr maps, either through tags, or by directly supporting gltf/glb objects.

This would greatly open up a lot more types of simulations to happen inside of mujoco.

Thank you!

Alternatives

Currrently, I'm using genesis and isaac sim as an alternative, but in terms of ease of use, and accuracy in simulations, I would love for this to exist in mujoco.

I’d like to work on this issue. Could @GJBoth please assign me?

@erez-tom to comment on the ORM texture type that was somewhat recently added. It's not plumbed into our built-in renderer at all, but we added it for our internal alternative renderer integration project. Perhaps that's already good enough for you?.

In the meantime, check out this documentation page.

Hi @saran-t . Is the internal renderer you mentioned going to be released in the near future?. If so, could you give an estimated timeline?. We wanted to improve the renderer, but if you guys are already working on it, maybe we should wait for your release.

We have an ongoing project to try to adopt Filament as a renderer option for MuJoCo. It's currently in an alpha stage for some internal users at Google DeepMind. Unfortunately I don't have a timeline to offer you yet.
