Nonlinear Model Predictive Control of a 3D Hopping Robot: Leveraging Lie Group Integrators for Dynamically Stable Behaviors

ICRA 2023poster

Achieving stable hopping has been a hallmark challenge in the field of dynamic legged locomotion. Controlled hopping is notably difficult due to extended periods of under-actuation combined with very short ground phases wherein ground interactions must be modulated to regulate global state. In this…

Episodic Learning with Control Lyapunov Functions for Uncertain Robotic Systems

IROS 2019poster

Many modern nonlinear control methods aim to endow systems with guaranteed properties, such as stability or safety, and have been successfully applied to the domain of robotics. However, model uncertainty remains a persistent challenge, weakening theoretical guarantees and causing implementation fai…
