DiffSim2Real: Deploying Quadrupedal Locomotion Policies Purely Trained in Differentiable Simulation

no code implementations4 Nov 2024 Joshua Bagajo, Clemens Schwarke, Victor Klemm, Ignat Georgiev, Jean-Pierre Sleiman, Jesus Tordesillas, Animesh Garg, Marco Hutter

A key factor in our success is a smooth contact model that combines informative gradients with physical accuracy, ensuring effective transfer of learned behaviors.

PRIMER: Perception-Aware Robust Learning-based Multiagent Trajectory Planner

no code implementations14 Jun 2024 Kota Kondo, Claudius T. Tewari, Andrea Tagliabue, Jesus Tordesillas, Parker C. Lusk, Jonathan P. How

In decentralized multiagent trajectory planners, agents need to communicate and exchange their positions to generate collision-free trajectories.

Autonomous Off-road Navigation over Extreme Terrains with Perceptually-challenging Conditions

no code implementations26 Jan 2021 Rohan Thakker, Nikhilesh Alatur, David D. Fan, Jesus Tordesillas, Michael Paton, Kyohei Otsu, Olivier Toupet, Ali-akbar Agha-mohammadi

We propose a framework for resilient autonomous navigation in perceptually challenging unknown environments with mobility-stressing elements such as uneven surfaces with rocks and boulders, steep slopes, negative obstacles like cliffs and holes, and narrow passages.

FASTER: Fast and Safe Trajectory Planner for Navigation in Unknown Environments

2 code implementations9 Jan 2020 Jesus Tordesillas, Brett T. Lopez, Michael Everett, Jonathan P. How

The standard approaches that ensure safety by enforcing a "stop" condition in the free-known space can severely limit the speed of the vehicle, especially in situations where much of the world is unknown.

FaSTraP: Fast and Safe Trajectory Planner for Flights in Unknown Environments

3 code implementations8 Mar 2019 Jesus Tordesillas, Brett T. Lopez, Jonathan P. How

The desire of maintaining computational tractability typically leads to optimization problems that do not include the obstacles (collision checks are done on the solutions) or to formulations that use a convex decomposition of the free space and then impose an ad hoc allocation of each interval of the trajectory in a specific polyhedron.

Real-Time Planning with Multi-Fidelity Models for Agile Flights in Unknown Environments

2 code implementations2 Oct 2018 Jesus Tordesillas, Brett T. Lopez, John Carter, John Ware, Jonathan P. How

However, in unknown environments, this approach can lead to erratic or unstable behavior due to the interaction between the global planner, whose solution is changing constantly, and the local planner; a consequence of not capturing higher-order dynamics in the global plan.
