Petoi Founder Converts Quaddle Quadruped Robot to Bipedal Walking
1 reports · 1 sources
RZ Li, founder of Petoi and creator of the open-source OpenCat quadruped framework, made the Quaddle quadruped robot walk on two legs by 3D printing a base and attaching it to the robot, and by adjusting gait tuning; neither the robot body nor the software was replaced. RZ Li said that with the same robot and the same software, once it stands up and walks, the problem is completely different, and asked developers of small bipedal robots: is the gait tuned manually, or trained in simulation first?

- Petoi founder converts Quaddle quadruped robot to walk on two legs
RZ Li, founder of Petoi and creator of the open-source OpenCat quadruped framework (started in 2016), modified the Quaddle with a 3D-printed base and adjusted its gait so it walks on two legs, without changing the robot body or software. The author asks developers of small bipedal robots whether gait is tuned manually or first trained in simulation.
