Improving Robot Motion Generation with Motion Policy Networks

Originally published at: https://developer.nvidia.com/blog/improving-robot-motion-generation-with-motion-policy-networks/

Collision-free motion generation in unknown environments is a core building block for robotic applications. Generating such motions is challenging. The motion generator must be fast enough for real-time performance and reliable enough for practical deployment.  Many methods addressing these challenges have been proposed, ranging from using local controllers to global planners. However, these traditional motion…
