About this project

I love Gritty, so I rendered a Gritty-inspired Microduck costume: orange shag, googly eyes and a hockey sweater. A head-bob dance uses a small imitation policy trained on HIM, with Pollen Robotics’ pretrained balance. A separate cake-toss take uses a HIM-optimized neck gesture and a beak-mounted serving paddle. Cake flight comes from MuJoCo contact and gravity. Two staged takes; cosmetic fur/clothing, a rigid cake, no hardware validation. Repo at https://github.com/maddiedreese/gritty-microduck
