Remember our robot SpaceBok flipping and landing like a cat? We will present this work at #ICRA2022, with some teasers of new developments! Nikita Rudin ETH Zurich ETH Zürich IEEE ICRA Paper: ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/94538… (arXiv: arxiv.org/abs/2106.09357) youtu.be/KQhlZa42fe4

If you missed the humanoid-quadruped transformer at NVIDIA's #GTC, then you can watch the full video here: youtu.be/kEdr0ARq48A #Robotics #reinforcementlearning #nvidia #transformer #swissmile ETH Zurich NVIDIA Omniverse NVIDIA GTC

After the first #Rocky movie in 1976, we present a continuation of the iconic series. Our transformer robot visited Philly as part of #ICRA2022. Video: youtu.be/xHa1vbuLNQU IEEE ICRA IEEE RAS IEEE Spectrum ANYbotics ETH Zurich ETH Zürich Sylvester Stallone #Robotics #AI



Interested in pushing the limits of legged robots? Check out how ANYmal learns to jump, climb and run in our @iros202 paper: "Advanced Skills by Learning Locomotion and Local Navigation End-to-End". Nikita Rudin, David Hoeller, Marko Bjelonic youtube.com/watch?v=Xoe8a_…

Mapping the terrain for locomotion is hard for quadrupedal robots. The camera setup results in blind spots and the state estimator suffers from drift.We propose a solution in our RA-L IROS2022 paper youtu.be/3zsvqCrztLg David Hoeller Nikita Rudin @ChrisChoy208 Prof. Anima Anandkumar

Marc Raibert and Al Rizzi visited ETH Zurich and our lab today. Thank you for your inspiring talk and checking out our research! #ai #robotics #engineering #research Boston Dynamics ETH Zurich



Roboticists from Robotic Systems Lab and NVIDIA Embedded are teaching four-legged robots climb and jump. After training in simulation, the robots can autonomously decide how to scramble over and under obstacles, which will help them do dangerous jobs so that humans don't have to.


Happy to finally release my last PhD work, where we once again pushed the limits of what ANYmal could do. Now that the PhD at ETH Zürich/ Robotic Systems Lab is done, we are moving on to robots with fewer legs and more arms at Flexion Robotics. New robots, same drive to push the limits!
