Propeller-Assisted Robust 3D Hopping Robot with Hierarchical Force Allocation
Chuhan Zhang, Hongbo Zhang, Yanlin Chen +4
Monopedal hopping robots are conceptually simple but highly dynamic and inherently unstable. Achieving robust 3D hopping is still difficult because ground reaction forces are avail…

Learning to Hop for a Single-Legged Robot with Parallel Mechanism
Hongbo Zhang, Xiangyu Chu, Yanlin Chen +4
This work presents the application of reinforcement learning to improve the performance of a highly dynamic hopping system with a parallel mechanism. Unlike serial mechanisms, para…
