CLARE has recently been accepted to RA-L! We propose a lightweight continual learning method for VLAs that injects modular adapters into selected VLA modules and autonomously expands the model only where necessary. Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2601.09512 Website: tum-lsy.github.io/clare

Ken Glodberg’s talk happening now at the Workshop on Semantics for Reliable Robot Autonomy: From Environment Understanding and Reasoning to Safe Interaction at VIP lounge C #ICRA 2026 – at Vienna, Austria

Our work, "A Primer on SO(3) Action Representations in Deep Reinforcement Learning," was accepted to #ICLR2026! We provide a systematic study of action representation choices in RL, showing that they fundamentally impact training stability and performance. #Robotics #AI #RL

Happy Robotic Holidays from the LSY Lab! 🤖🎄 Simulation + Domain Randomization = Robust Policies. In this video, we randomize: 📸Camera 🖼️Background 💡Lighting Excited about Sim-to-Real? Come work with us!🚀 Created by Timo Class @OliHausdorfer #Robotics #Sim2Real #AI

How do you teach robots to make good decisions in the real world? 🤖 We have developed a course series that bridges optimal control, MPC, and RL—down to hands-on robot implementations. Course materials are coming soon. Subscribe here for updates: groups.google.com/g/safe-rob…

We are excited to share our recent collaboration with @Bitcraze_se, showcasing how Bitcraze’s new Crazyflie Colour LED Deck adds a new dimension of expression to our SwarmGPT system for interactive drone choreography design. Hope you enjoy the video and happy holidays!
