Robots are going to become a whole lot more agile in the future. Plenty of researchers are working on perfecting them. Learning agile skills can be challenging but imitation learning can make it more easier. A team of researchers have introduced a Wasserstein Adversarial Skill Imitation (WASABI) approach that enables robots to acquire agile behaviors from “partial and potentially physically incompatible demonstrations.”

Learning Agile Skills via Adversarial Imitation of Rough Partial Demonstrations
As this video shows, Solo, a quadruped robot, learned backflips from human demonstrations. Chenhao Li, Marin Vlastelica, Sebastian Blaes, Jonas Frey, Felix Grimminger, and Georg Martius are behind this approach.
