About Us
The Agile Robot Control and Design (ARCaD) Lab aims to advance the dynamic capabilities in legged robots, through devising innovative control algorithms and hardware. Our research goal is to apply optimal control, mechatronics integration and reinforcement learning to achieve agile motions on hardware platforms. By bridging the gap between theoretical foundations and practical implementations, we strive to push the boundaries of legged robot agility and versatility.
An excellent starting point to learn about our research is our YouTube Channel
