Locomotion with Online Awareness of Dynamics for Precision Footholds
Locomotion with Online Awareness of Dynamics for Precision Footholds
LOAD is a perceptive locomotion framework that combines explicit inertial estimates with implicit dynamics features for narrow-beam traversal. The paper evaluates LOAD and its variants in simulation and on hardware, showing that combining physical estimates and historical data improves traversal success under unknown payloads. Hardware experiments demonstrate successful traversal with unilateral payloads of 6 kg on a 10 cm beam and 9 kg on a 15 cm beam, as well as an evenly distributed 11 kg payload on a 15 cm beam.

ith ground-truth inertial parameters. Hardware experiments demonstrate traversal with unilateral payloads of 6 kg on a 10 cm beam and 9 kg on a 15 cm beam, and an evenly distributed 11 kg payload on a 15 cm beam. These results support combining physical estimates and history features for precision locomotion under unknown loads.
