Agile perceptive multi-skill locomotion for quadrupedal robots in the wild

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2607. 13579v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Enabling quadrupedal robots to traverse complex terrains-from rugged outdoor environments to urban landscapes-requires seamless integration of multiple motor skills, smooth transitions between gaits, and high-speed perceptive locomotion using only onboard sensors.

OmniMimic: Dynamics-completed Motion Augmentation for Multi-style Omnidirectional Quadruped Locomotion

OmniMimic is a training framework that expands limited animal demonstration data into a single multi‑gait policy for omnidirectional quadruped locomotion. It uses temporal reversal, constrained dynamics completion, and sagittal reflection to generate kinematic and physical supervision beyond the observed directions, then progressively expands command ranges and employs a shared actor with soft‑gated gait‑specialized residual experts. In simulation, OmniMimic improves foot‑position accuracy by 12.9% and velocity‑tracking error by 63.1% over the APEX baseline across four gaits.

LoComposition: Terrain-Adaptive Energy-Efficient Quadruped Locomotion without Gait Priors

arXiv:2606. 15896v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Learning-based quadrupedal locomotion typically relies on complex reward formulations that entangle task specification, operational limits, gait preference, and terrain adaptation within a single optimization objective.
