Swift progress for robots over complex terrain
arXiv:2308.02702 · doi:10.1038/d41586-023-00710-0
Abstract
A four-legged robot has learned to run on sand at faster pace than humans jog on solid ground. With low energy use and few failures, this rapid robot shows the value of combining data-driven learning with accurate yet simple models.
