A quote-tweeted demo from a Chinese robotics startup, Light Origin, shows a single-policy locomotion system that can keep a robot moving even when one or both legs are restrained.
The robot reportedly stays mobile by hopping or crawling, which the poster interprets as a sign that general locomotion may be getting close to being solved.
