GAIT: Legged Robot Proprioceptive State Estimation with Attention over Inertial-Leg Tokens

Young-Rang Seo, Hajun Kim, Sangmin Kim +2

In this paper, we propose a method that applies Inertial-Leg (IL) tokenization to an attention-based network for proprioceptive state estimation in legged robots. Unlike existing l…
