ATHLETE: Learning Reactive Humanoid Tennis via Trajectory-Guided Motion Matching

1 reports1 reporting sourcesUpdated 7 days ago

Overview

Event synthesis

ATHLETE combines LAFAN1 locomotion with video-derived striking motions using TGMM to enable reactive humanoid tennis. It achieves 90.00% and 86.67% hit rates for forehand and backhand shots, enabling multi-shot rallies with human players without reference-motion inputs at deployment.

    ATHLETE: Learning Reactive Humanoid Tennis via Trajectory-Guided Motion Matching

    ATHLETE is a framework for learning reactive humanoid tennis from generic locomotion data and ordinary tennis videos. It combines LAFAN1 locomotion with video-derived striking motions using Trajectory-Guided Motion Matching (TGMM) to construct diverse whole-body references. These are refined through physics-based teacher-student learning and PPO fine-tuning, achieving 90.00% and 86.67% hit rates for forehand and backhand shots, respectively, and enabling multi-shot rallies with human players.
