  • The paper trains a neural-network locomotion controller in simulation and deploys it on the ANYmal quadruped.
  • It reports dynamic motor skills such as fast locomotion, fall recovery, and robustness to pushes, slopes, and uneven terrain.
  • This is a landmark ANYmal result because it helped establish sim-to-real reinforcement learning as a practical route for legged-robot control.

ANYbotics develops autonomous legged robots for industrial inspection in complex and hazardous environments. Its ANYmal platform targets repeatable monitoring, inspection and safety workflows.
