Robots Using Their Feet to Manipulate Objects ETH Zurich researchers have advanced "pedipulation," where legged robots use their feet for manipulation instead of robotic arms. Their new approach trains robots to navigate and manipulate objects while avoiding static and dynamic obstacles. Tested on the ANYmal quadruped, the method enables precise foot control in complex, unseen environments after minimal training in simulation. Will this research open up new possibilities for efficient, obstacle-aware robot manipulation?
