Tennis Robot hitting balls with a racket : Swing Shot
World's first tennis robot hitting balls with a racket.
Conventional robots cannot provide effective practices because it is impossible to foresee
the timing of ball release and ball pitches. These problems are solved by hitting balls with
a racket. Speed of a ball can be adjusted between 20 km/h and 70 km/h. The bobot can slso
release balls in different pitches, such as spin, lob, smash. The robot is
remote-controlled. The manufacturer is expecting introduction of robotts to tennis schools
and others. [movie]
