KAIST Humanoid v0.9 whole-body locomanipulation demo
Overview
KAIST's Humanoid v0.9 uses deep reinforcement learning and onboard vision to coordinate walking with heavy loads, pushing 35 kg (77.2 lb) and lifting 20 kg (44.1 lb) while walking without external cameras. The demonstration highlights the challenge of whole-body locomanipulation, balancing forces during physical interaction with objects.
