When Being Soft Makes You Tough: A Collision-Resilient Quadcopter Inspired by Arthropods' Exoskeletons

Ricardo de Azambuja, Hassan Fouad, Yann Bouteiller, Charles Sol, Giovanni Beltrame

ICRA 2022poster

Flying robots are usually rather delicate and require protective enclosures when facing the risk of collision, while high complexity and reduced payload are recurrent problems with collision-resilient flying robots. Inspired by arthropods' exoskeletons, we design a simple, open source, easily manufa…

Reinforcement Learning with Random Delays

Yann Bouteiller, Simon Ramstedt, Giovanni Beltrame, Christopher Pal, Jonathan Binas

ICLR 2021poster

Action and observation delays commonly occur in many Reinforcement Learning applications, such as remote control scenarios. We study the anatomy of randomly delayed environments, and show that partially resampling trajectory fragments in hindsight allows for off-policy multi-step value estimation. W…
