ETH Zurich releases browser-playable Unitree G1 parkour policy with attention-based contacts
ChongZzZhang · x · 2026-11-01
ETH Zurich's legged robotics group released "Playground: Humanoid Mobility via Attention-based Contacts (ACP)", a browser demo where you can drive the Unitree G1 humanoid parkour policy in MuJoCo.
Key details: 50 MB first load (engine, meshes, policy network), contact-planner policy at 50 Hz on 23 DoF, WASD/gamepad goal control, follow camera, height-scan and planned-contact visualization, fall recovery via FixStand, and a note that the browser sim differs slightly from their MuJoCo, Isaac Lab, and real-robot runs. A ladder terrain variant just launched, with more terrain variations coming.
