Taking the First Step Toward Autonomous Quadruped Robots: The Quadruped Robot Challenge at ICRA 2023 in London [Competitions]

Abstract

Last year, the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society (RAS) CAB Competition Committee proposed the Quadruped Robot Challenge (QRC) as an exemplary robot challenge organized by RAS at RAS’s major conferences. As a part of the project, the first version of the QRC was held in ICRA 2023 in London. In this column, we would like to introduce the challenges and the results.
