Researchers at ETH Zurich have made significant advancements in robotics with their dog-like robot, ANYmal. By employing a new learning method, they've enhanced ANYmal's agility, enabling it to perform complex movements such as walking, crouching, climbing, jumping, vaulting over, and crawling under obstacles. This improvement allows ANYmal to navigate through a rudimentary parkour course at speeds of up to 2 meters per second and tackle obstacles by climbing over them and negotiating pitfalls. The technology, which incorporates machine learning and a simulation-to-reality learning approach, is detailed in publications such as Science Magazine and SciRobotics, and could have profound implications for search and rescue missions by enabling robots to overcome physical hurdles more effectively.
A four-legged robot can handle real-world obstacles that require scrambling up and down or leaping sizeable gaps. AI training lets it adapt to new terrain it hasn't seen before. Learn more 👉 https://t.co/5PT72kM2Fg https://t.co/jMG9ER3IiZ
Unitree is such an insane company. Meet Unitree H1 🤯 Feel like these folks are going to build a bazillion droids in a couple of years before anyone really notices. The speed of these things is already pretty insane. https://t.co/93kOz92xLA
