Not everything fails in the world of robots, while some videos show machines losing control, others reveal something completely different, a level of precision that begins to impress. Researchers recently demonstrated a human robot was capable of playing tennis in real time with a human and we're not talking about simple movements.
In simulation tests, the robot achieved up to 96% accuracy in forehand shots, but the most impressive thing is not only the number, but the challenge behind it, because tennis is one of the most difficult sports for a robot, the balls can reach speeds of up to 30 m per second, the contact time between the racket and the ball lasts just a few milliseconds and the player needs to constantly move over large areas.
