Our New Quadruped Robot!

Take a look at our in-house built quadruped robot with customized motor and body designs. It is designed and built mostly by Shenggao Li (an undergraduate student in our lab). It is expected to have a high power density and is able to accomplish very agile motions. It will be a great experimental platform for […]

New result on Dynamic Walking using Reinforcement Learning

We present a novel model-free reinforcement learning (RL) framework to design feedback control policies for 3D bipedal walking. Existing RL algorithms are often trained in an end-to-end manner or rely on prior knowledge of some reference joint trajectories. Different from these studies, we propose a novel policy structure that appropriately incorporates physical insights gained from […]
