As robotic systems move from highly structured environments to open worlds, incorporating uncertainty from dynamics learning or state estimation into the control pipeline is essential for robust performance. In this paper we present a…
Simulations of many rigid bodies colliding with each other sometimes yield particularly interesting results if the colliding objects differ significantly in size and are non-spherical. The most expensive part within such a simulation code…
