Control System From MIT Supports a New Kind of Robot

Researchers at MIT are developing a new control system to apply the agility of cheetahs to four-legged robots.

“It is remarkable to witness the flexibility of machine learning techniques capable of bypassing carefully designed intermediate processes (e.g. state estimation and trajectory planning) that centuries-old model-based techniques have relied on," says Sangbae Kim  , professor of mechanical engineering.
