Due to the rapid development of the quadruped robot industry in the past decade, various commercial quadruped robots have emerged with distinct physical attributes. Different from the previous work in which the designed controller is robot-specific, this article proposes a learning-based control fra
Quadruped robots, in recent years, have been increasingly used in extremely harsh and dangerous conditions. Consequently, diverse severe hardware failures may occur at any time during the working cycle of the robots. In this work, we propose a fault-tolerant (FT) control pipeline based on model-free
Particle robots are novel biologically-inspired robotic systems where locomotion can be achieved collectively and robustly, but not independently. While its control is currently limited to a hand-crafted policy for basic locomotion tasks, such a multi-robot system could be potentially controlled via…
Soft bodies made from flexible and deformable materials are popular in many robotics applications, but their proprioceptive sensing has been a long-standing challenge. In other words, there has hardly been a method to measure and model the high-dimensional 3D shapes of soft bodies with internal sens
