Angular Momentum Tracking

Angular momentum (AM) tracking can improve MPC by allowing the humanoid robot to more effectively maintain balance and stability during walking, running, ju...

Balance control on uneven terrain

Uneven terrain can unpredictably and shift the robot’s center of mass and instantaneously re-distribute the feet forces. Thus, it is challenging balance whil...

Centroidal dynamics approximation

Centroidal dynamics approximation can significantly reduce the complexity of the model predictive control, enabling efficient computations for real-time pred...

Emerging data-driven approaches

Data-driven approaches have become increasingly relevant in robotic control as they have achieved unprecedented success in various applications, such as slid...

Floating-base state estimation

Accurately estimating the floating-base state is critical for humanoid robots as they move freely in space, but challenges such as noisy sensory data and tig...

Whole-body model predictive control

Whole-body Model Predictive Control (MPC) can enable humanoid robots to perform complex, dynamic tasks such as walking, running, jumping, and manipulation. ...

Transfer human locomotion skills

Transferring human locomotion skills to humanoid robots is a multidisciplinary research field that combines biomechanics, machine learning, and neuroscience....
