Watch Your Step: Anticipated Perception for Humanoid Locomotion
The ETH Robotic Systems Lab introduces a new perception approach for humanoid robots navigating rough terrain, focusing on predicting and perceiving only the terrain patches relevant for the next step, aiming to enhance locomotion efficiency and adaptability.
The work introduces a perception method tailored for humanoid locomotion in rough terrain, focusing on predicting and perceiving only the terrain relevant for the next step, which could improve efficiency and robustness in dynamic environments.

We hope to change ideas on how perception should integrated in rough terrain locomotion with our latest work
Watch Your Step: Anticipated Perception for Humanoid Locomotion
We predict and perceive only where it matters.
