This lecture by the instructor delves into the world of computational robot design, focusing on the concept of co-optimization. The presentation covers topics such as heuristic-based design, optimization-driven design, generative and learning-based design, and interactive workflows. It explores the challenges and benefits of gradient-based co-optimization, trajectory optimization, and the use of graph grammars for robot design. The lecture also discusses the application of soft robots in diverse environments, the importance of design space analysis, and the comparison between gradient-based and gradient-free optimization methods.
