Robotic Table Tennis: A Case Study into a High Speed Learning System
David B. D'Ambrosio, Jonathan Abelian, Saminda Abeyruwan +32
We present a deep-dive into a real-world robotic learning system that, in previous work, was shown to be capable of hundreds of table tennis rallies with a human and has the abilit…
Agile Catching with Whole-Body MPC and Blackbox Policy Learning
Saminda Abeyruwan, Alex Bewley, Nicholas M. Boffi +9
We address a benchmark task in agile robotics: catching objects thrown at high-speed. This is a challenging task that involves tracking, intercepting, and cradling a thrown object…
GoalsEye: Learning High Speed Precision Table Tennis on a Physical Robot
Tianli Ding, Laura Graesser, Saminda Abeyruwan +5
Learning goal conditioned control in the real world is a challenging open problem in robotics. Reinforcement learning systems have the potential to learn autonomously via trial-and…
i-Sim2Real: Reinforcement Learning of Robotic Policies in Tight Human-Robot Interaction Loops
Saminda Abeyruwan, Laura Graesser, David B. D'Ambrosio +6
Sim-to-real transfer is a powerful paradigm for robotic reinforcement learning. The ability to train policies in simulation enables safe exploration and large-scale data collection…
