  • Abstract
    We propose a novel approach for transferring evolved control systems from a simulated environment to a real robot. Multiple dynamic simulation systems are simultaneously employed to provide a valid range of simulation variance that can be exploited to generate robust controllers in a purely virtual environment. These controllers can then be directly transferred to a physical robot.
