Are you looking for a table tennis partner? Well this next level robotic human assistant may bring out the best in your game by practicing with you tirelessly for hours. Visitors of Japan's 2016 Combined Exhibition of Advanced Technologies, or CEATEC, got a chance to work on their own serves with Omron's latest ping-pong robot. Omron's robot is able to predict the ball's path and return it consistently, but the ping pong robot is actually being designed and modified for factory work instead of becoming the next ping-pong legend.
