Welcome to the ACC 2022 Workshop:

Towards Safe Legged Locomotion in Complex Environments: Learning, Estimation, Planning, and Autonomy

Tuesday, June 7th, 2022

Objectives

The primary purpose of this workshop is to discuss the fundamental challenges in learning, planning, estimation, and control for safe legged robotics in complex, real-world environments. These types of robotic platforms have an enormous potential for swaths of applications, particularly where mobility challenges limit the application of more traditional ground robots. We will use this workshop to present discussion pieces and foster conversation on the true challenges limiting the fielding of legged robots.
