The Legged AI Laboratory focuses on fundamental theory and methodology to advance the locomotion and manipulation capabilities of legged robots—machines that navigate the physical world using articulated limbs. Our research aims to develop principled mechanical designs and intelligent algorithms grounded in rigorous mathematics, drawing from control theory, numerical optimization, and machine learning. The lab was established in 2023 at the University of Wisconsin–Madison and transitioned to the Shanghai Innovation Institute (SII) in 2026.
足智实验室致力于研究提升足式机器人物理智能（即移动与操控能力）的基础理论与核心方法，重点探索基于控制理论、数值优化与机器学习的机器人机械设计与智能算法。实验室于 2023 年成立于威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校，并于 2026 年整体转入上海创智学院（SII）。
实验室目前经费充足，在大力招人，请感兴趣加入的同学填写招聘问卷。
博士生: 对在上海创智学院攻读博士感兴趣的同学，请参加其统一招生活动（如夏令营与金秋营），可以邮件联系以提前了解实验室情况。
科研助理: 重点针对在读本科生，需全职到岗，提供薪酬，感兴趣的同学请填完问卷后直接邮件联系。
工程师招聘: 现代表创智招一名机器人工程师，提供超有竞争力的薪酬和待遇，着重在机器人本体系统研发，有设计本体（制图与嵌入式设计等）经验者优先，请直接邮件推荐或者申请。
