DribbleBot (Dexterous Ball Manipulation with a Legged Robot) is a legged robotic system that can dribble a soccer ball under the same real-world conditions as humans (i.e., in-the-wild). We adopt the paradigm of training policies in simulation using reinforcement learning and transferring them into the real world.

Train reinforcement learning policies for the Go1 robot using PPO, IsaacGym, Domain Randomization to dribble a soccer ball in simulation following a random ball velocity command in global frame. Evaluate a pre-trained soccer policy in simulation.

Apr 3, 2023 · Researchers from MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) created a new system that enables a quadruped robot to dribble a soccer ball on landscapes such as sand, gravel, mud, and snow, using reinforcement learning to adapt to varying ball dynamics.

May 29, 2023 · DribbleBot (Dexterous Ball Manipulation with a Legged Robot) is a legged robotic system that can dribble a soccer ball under the same real-world conditions as humans. We identify key challenges of in-the-wild soccer ball manipulation, including variable ball motion dynamics and perception using body-mounted cameras.
