Sim-to-Real: Learning Agile Locomotion For Quadruped Robots
Jie Tan,Tingnan Zhang,Erwin Coumans,Atil Iscen,Yunfei Bai,Danijar Hafner,Steven Bohez,Vincent Vanhoucke +7 more
TL;DR: This system can learn quadruped locomotion from scratch using simple reward signals and users can provide an open loop reference to guide the learning process when more control over the learned gait is needed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A terradynamics of legged locomotion on granular media.
TL;DR: The authors developed a force model for arbitrarily-shaped legs and bodies moving freely in granular media, and used this "terradynamics" to predict a small legged robot's locomotion using various leg shapes and stride frequencies.

A review on locomotion robophysics: the study of movement at the intersection of robotics, soft matter and dynamical systems
Jeffrey Aguilar,Tingnan Zhang,Feifei Qian,Mark Kingsbury,Benjamin McInroe,Nicole Mazouchova,Chen Li,Ryan D. Maladen,Chaohui Gong,Matthew Travers,Ross L. Hatton,Howie Choset,Paul B. Umbanhowar,Daniel I. Goldman +13 more
TL;DR: Robophysics as mentioned in this paper is the pursuit of the discovery of principles of self-generated motion in robots, which can provide an important intellectual complement to the discipline of robotics, largely the domain of researchers from engineering and computer science.

Learning Agile Robotic Locomotion Skills by Imitating Animals
TL;DR: This work presents an imitation learning system that enables legged robots to learn agile locomotion skills by imitating real-world animals and shows that by leveraging reference motion data, a single learning-based approach is able to automatically synthesize controllers for a diverse repertoire behaviors forLegged robots.
