Humanoid roller-skating is difficult because the robot must coordinate whole-body balance, rolling contacts, and velocity-dependent posture regulation. This paper presents an adversarial motion prior based reinforcement learning framework for two humanoid roller-skating gaits: Pump Glide skating and Push Glide skating. The two gait datasets are collected independently through motion capture and retargeted to the humanoid robot separately. The retargeted data are then smoothed and resampled into reference motion states for AMP training. The two gaits are learned by independent AMP training pipelines with separate reference datasets, separate policies, and independent reward architectures. Simulation experiments are designed to evaluate gait quality, velocity tracking, turning, and gait-specific reward ablations.
Recent progress in humanoid behavior models has been driven in large part by abundant human motion data, but comparable motion data is scarce for non-humanoid legged robots such as quadrupeds, hexapods, and quadruped manipulators. A promising alternative is to repurpose human mot…
As humanoid robots become increasingly dynamic, coupling them with reinforcement learning offers a promising approach to solving the complex, underactuated mechanics of passive inline skating. Equipping a humanoid robot with passive inline skating wheels presents an opportunity t…
In this paper, we propose Adversarial Dynamics Priors (ADP) for perturbation-resilient humanoid locomotion control. Existing motion prior-based methods induce natural motion styles by imitating kinematic motion features, but they do not directly regularize dynamics features, such…
Humanoid robot motion learning requires not only task-oriented control policies but also physically feasible and natural behaviors that can be transferred to real robots. However, robot-feasible motion data are often scarce: raw human demonstrations may be incompatible with the r…
Recent advances in humanoid robotics have highlighted the importance of deployable loco-manipulation skills. Dribbling a soccer ball while evading active opponents requires simultaneous balance, precise ball control, and awareness of a dynamic adversary under onboard sensing and…
Different stages of manipulation tasks exhibit varying levels of difficulty, suggesting stage-dependent motion speeds and temporal prediction horizons. However, existing IL-based visuomotor policies typically imitate the execution speed of expert demonstrations and operate with a…
