The authors introduce a physical-grounding cage for language-guided legged navigation, mapping proposed goals to sensed geometry and checking motion with a discrete exponential barrier function (dEBF). On a Unitree G1, 20 trials per condition with JPS enabled showed collisions fell from 100% to 0% when dEBF was added to MPPI. This guarantee assumes a sensed map and planar model.
