Guillermo A. Castillo works on making legged robots—especially two-legged (bipedal) robots—walk safely and reliably over difficult terrain. His research combines control theory, machine learning, and safety testing methods to help robots plan their steps, avoid obstacles, and recover from disturbances, while also developing standardized ways to measure and compare how well robots actually perform.
