LACE-CRAFT: Robot Co-Design with Actor Inheritance and Blackboard Collaboration

LACE-CRAFT is a research paper proposing a method for robot co-design that combines morphology search with policy learning. The approach uses continued learning and policy adaptation to retain control experience across different robot designs. It introduces a framework for generating and refining robot hardware configurations through shared experimental records and behavioral replays, achieving performance improvements over existing methods in locomotion benchmarks.
