LEAP Lab: Robot Dog Demo

Registration recommended! You’ll be the first to learn of event details or if the location or date changes due to inclement weather. Attendance is first come first served, regardless of registration.

Meet a robotic dog with our friends from the NSF Institute for Artificial Intelligence and Fundamental Interactions (IAIFI).

IAIFI Fellow Ge Yang and MIT undergraduates Alan Yu and Hannah Gao demonstrate how they have taught their robotic dog to run using reinforcement learning, which trains in a simulated environment through trial and error without explicit instructions for how to do so.
