Abstract
An example implementation may involve receiving, by a robot comprising a first foot and a second foot, sensor data indicating that a force has been applied to a top surface of the first foot. The robot may have a trajectory, and the sensor data may be received from a sensor positioned on the top surface of the first foot. In response to receiving the sensor data, the robot may determine an updated trajectory for the robot and cause the second foot to swing such that the robot moves according to the updated trajectory.
