World's 8th best player beats world's fastest robot in Table Tennis match

It may still not be the time for robots to require over the globe, however for sure that’s getting to happen shortly. “Agilus” a golem created by KUKA AI, a Chinese company, command its own and nearly won during a Ping-Pong match against a prime level contestant. Timo Boll, a German TT player, presently hierarchal eighth within the sport in international rankings (and World Health Organization command the No. one rank within the past) was able to beat the golem during a tightly oppose match unionised by KUKA AI.

Timo Boll is that the complete ambassador for KUKA AI and therefore the match was unionised by the corporate to publicise its line-up of business robots. in step with KUKA’s web site, the Agilus golem is capable of handling payloads up to six kilograms and features a reach of virtually three feet. The golem itself weighs fifty two kilograms and has been designed for operations like loading, unloading and handling materials, packing and collection, among others.


Unfortunately, the particular video of the match appearance heavily altered and togged up with Hollywood vogue slow-motion and following shots. This will provide the impression that the video doesn't represent the particular match however rather, a medium “retelling” of the match. even so, it's a really cool watch and I’d recommend you stick around until the top to observe Boll taking part in against multiple Agilus robots.
