I work as a Research Scientist at Meta Reality Labs in San Francisco. I study the physical principles of human and animal movement to replicate them with robots or virtual agents. This work combines Reinforcement learning, Computer Vision, Character animation, Motion Tracking and Robotics. I did my PhD at the Agile and Dexterous Robotics Lab at ETH Zurich, where I worked on robot motion-planning, trajectory optimization, and model-based control for quadruped robots. I received my Masters in Mechanical Engineering at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology... Visualization of legged robots, forces, support areas, ZMP, CoM etc. in ROS rviz... Light-weight and extensible C++ library for trajectory optimization for legged robots.
