迪士尼机器人「摔跤」也内卷:不仅要摔得轻,还要摔得帅!AI新研究把Bug玩成绝活
机器人大讲堂· 2025-12-22 11:26
机器人摔倒是个大难题,尤其是 "头重脚轻"的机器人,一不小心就可能造成昂贵的损伤。过去,为了防止摔 倒,工程师们要么限制其性能,让它畏首畏尾;要么任其"硬着陆" 。 这些方法都治标不治本。 但是,如果换个思路呢? 与其想尽办法避免摔倒,不如把 "摔倒"本身,变成一门可以学习和控制的艺术。 就在最近,来自迪士尼研究院( Disney Research)的一项最新研究,彻底颠覆了我们对机器人摔倒的认 知。他们提出了一种名为"机器人速成班:学习柔软且风格化的摔倒"(Robot Crash Course: Learning Soft and Stylized Falling)的全新方法。 这项研究的核心思想是: 让机器人不仅能摔得 "软",最大限度减少冲击和损伤,还能摔得"帅",在倒地后摆 出一个用户指定的、充满艺术感的姿势。 想象一下,一个机器人在舞台上出现失误,它没有僵硬地倒下,而是顺势一个翻滚,最后以一个帅气的卧倒姿 势结束,不仅没出糗,反而秀了一波操作。这简直是把 Bug玩成了绝活! 这项研究成果,不仅能让机器人在娱乐、影视等行业大放异彩,更能为机器人的安全和快速恢复提供全新的解 决方案。一个能控制自己摔倒姿 ...
