| Yes, the autonomy level of these robots was what I was yesterday emailing with my former colleagues we were wondering. Two months ago CNET & PC-Mag posted following video which suggests more about robots movements being assisted by humans. And it also shows Chinese have being edge of the development at that point. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXTibM33SDg However, then another short video bit alike popped up and is puzzling too. Apparently Unitree robot is playing pingpong match like a pro. Sorry about german announcer, I couldn't find with english. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/BgD1ukTyNnw There is another match viewable by pressing that "Robot plays ping ppng #robot" arrow. How about that robot? Is it human assisted or not? Our opinions diverted, I'm quite sure it is assisted but my former colleague thinks it's got to be autonomous as it would be too difficult and slow to do that fast movements with remote control assisted robot. It would be nice to hear opinions about that playing robot too if anyone could provide some insight in that. edit: I think the serve waiting robot hand movement and after losing wiping left eye gesture as a disappointing a bit in my opinion gives up it's human. Or if not, why would a robot do such a human like gestures. edit2: OK, good points, I see now. It's definitely a fake. Thanks to all who replied :) |
