Our latest research introduces a robust Invariant Extended Kalman Filter that uses proprioceptive sensors and robust cost functions to minimize the impact of slippage and outlier measurements. 🚀 Results: Reduced pose drift by up to 40% over 450m compared to current methods!

Exploiting morphological symmetries can enhance model-free RL sample efficiency, policy optimality, and sim2real transfer in legged locomotion and manipulation. Our #IROS2024 paper exploits these symmetries for RL methods. Code is open-sourced: 🌐 bit.ly/SymLoco🧵

Human-robot and robot-robot collaborative carrying with mobile robots typically requires a manipulator arm. At #IROS24, we introduce PACC, a novel passive-arm design that, coupled with a decentralized MPC, allows an efficient execution of such tasks with quadruped robots.

Model Predictive Control (MPC) for legged robots is limited by model complexity. In our #IROS24 paper, we show how partitioning the robot into smaller subsystems, each controlled in parallel by a faster dedicated MPC, can achieve complex whole-body motions more efficiently.

Sampling-based methods are attractive due to the incredible simplicity of their implementation. At #IROS24, we present our work where we use GPU acceleration in #JAX to jointly optimize for gait parameters and ground reaction forces using more than 10K rollouts in less than 2ms
