  • Agile Bipedal Locomotion via Hierarchical Control by Incorporating Physical Principles, Learning, and Optimization

    Creator:
    Green, Kevin
    Abstract:
    Robotic Bipedal locomotion holds the potential for efficient, robust traversal of difficult terrain. The difficulty lies in the dynamics of locomotion which complicate control and motion planning. Bipedal locomotion dynamics are dimensionally large problems, extremely nonlinear, and operate on the limits of actuator capabilities, which limit the performance of generic...

  • Agile Bipedal Maneuvers Optimized then Learned from Single Rigid-Body Model Dynamics

    Creator:
    Batke, Ryan
    Abstract:
    As bipedal robots move ever closer to being integrated into all manner of real world envi-ronments there is a necessity to push their dynamic capabilities to meet or exceed those of humans and animals. Advancements must be made to address ordinary challenges that arise everyday in the same environments that...
