Optimal quadruped gait transitions

About

Final project for MEAM 517 - Control And Optimization With Applications In Robotics, Fall 2022.

Members: Chandravaran Kunjeti, Jason Xie

We are interested in the problem of transitioning between two different gaits for a quadruped robot. Using an existing convex MPC method, we extend it to handle gait transitions by running multiple MPCs covering potential next gait states.
