New Delhi: Technology is expanding rapidly in the world, especially in the field of robotics and artificial intelligence (AI), some new technology is introduced every day. Meanwhile, researchers at Google DeepMind have developed a robot that is adept at playing table tennis and has defeated many players so far. This robot uses 6 DoF ABB 1100 modern arms, which makes this robot excellent in the game.
Design of the robot
This robot is designed by combining many small and large parts. The large parts enable it to make decisions thoughtfully, while the small parts make it skilled in performing specific tasks. Researchers have developed it in such a way that it can change its strategy by understanding its opponent's game and can make decisions at the right time.
Competition with professional players
Although this robot has easily defeated beginners, it faced challenges against professional players. It lost all the matches against professional players. The main reason for this is that the robot has difficulty handling fast-moving balls. Due to the time taken to make decisions and react, the robot is weak in front of professional players. To solve this problem, scientists are working on new control methods.
what the players say
After playing with the robot, 26 out of 29 players have expressed their desire to play again. Players say that the experience of playing with the robot is unique and fun. If such innovations continue in the field of AI and robotics, then in the future we may get to see competition between robots and humans in big sporting events. However, only time will tell whether this will be possible or not.
