When it comes to the control system of quadruped robots, deep reinforcement learning (DRL) is considered to be a promising solution. Despite years of development in this field, difficulties remain in guaranteeing the action stability of DRL-based quadruped robots’ locomotion, especially in tough terrain. In this paper, a terrain-aware teacher-student controller integrating a risk assessment networ...
