I are inclined to strategy robotic movies with a gentle air of defeat and scepticism, in no small half as a result of a variety of hype has been generated over what has turned out to be simply choreographed actions up to now. Not right here, although. This little HITTER (HumanoId Desk TEnnis Robotic) is hitting bona fide desk tennis rallies in opposition to people. And sure, that is desk tennis, not ping pong; I am proper, you are incorrect.<\/p>\n

Alright, alright, we’ll go along with ‘ping pong’. HITTER, the ping pong-playing robotic, comes from researchers on the FHL Vive Middle for Enhanced Actuality at UC Berkeley. In a current video (through Techeblog), it is proven forehanding, backhanding, and smashing ping pong balls with spectacular dexterity and, dare I say it, human-<\/em>like motion.<\/p>\n
