How we achieved zero-shot sim2real for Asimov

How long before your new locomotion policy is live on the robot? We asked researchers this question around the world. The answers vary from "3-5 hours" to "it takes us 2 weeks to adapt a policy for a real life robot". At Menlo, we spent the last 8 months closing this locomotion sim2real gap on a sophisticated, bipedal form factor, so your policies can work out of simulation, zero-shot. We think
