Contact-Guided Exploration for Non-Prehensile Locomanipulation with Multi-Critic RL
Simone Tolomei, Mayank Mittal, Franco Angelini +3
Non-prehensile manipulation offers versatile skills for moving and rearranging heavy or bulky objects, particularly when combined with a mobile manipulation platform. However, both…
Botany Meets Robotics in Alpine Scree Monitoring
Davide De Benedittis, Giovanni Di Lorenzo, Franco Angelini +5
According to the European Union's Habitat Directive, habitat monitoring plays a critical role in response to the escalating problems posed by biodiversity loss and environmental de…
Underactuated dexterous robotic grasping with reconfigurable passive joints
Marek Kopicki, Sainul Islam Ansary, Simone Tolomei +3
We introduce a novel reconfigurable passive joint (RP-joint), which has been implemented and tested on an underactuated three-finger robotic gripper. RP-joint has no actuation, but…
Robust Footstep Planning and LQR Control for Dynamic Quadrupedal Locomotion
Guiyang Xin, Songyan Xin, Oguzhan Cebe +5
In this paper, we aim to improve the robustness of dynamic quadrupedal locomotion through two aspects: 1) fast model predictive foothold planning, and 2) applying LQR to projected…
