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

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

Can't stop thinking about this and go: ☹️ "The reason we don't have fusion already is because we, as a civilization, never decided that it was a priority. Fusion funding is literally peanuts: In 2016, the US spent twice as much on peanut subsidies as on fusion research."

Whoa. Learned behavior from end-to-end training that combines navigation and locomotion (w/ motion capture for state estimation) by Robotic Systems Lab. Paper at IROS2022 next month, more here: sites.google.com/leggedrobotics…

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

Crazy to think about it, but I'm traveling internationally for the first time in 3.5 years! Will present our work titled "DexPBT" at #RSS2023 in Daegu, Korea! This paper is a recipe for how to make RL work for high-DoF dexterous hand-arm systems youtu.be/D2Wi7jDUYH8?t=…

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!
