The Olympic Table Tennis competition will see 172 competitors (86 men and 86 women) battle it out in four events: men’s singles, women’s singles and men’s and women’s teams. Power, skill and lightning-quick reflexes are required to win at table tennis, which is based on the same principles as its tableless namesake. A point is won if the opponent fails to return the ball, hits the net or misses the table. Eleven points are needed to win a set. Each game is the best of five sets.
Rio de Janeiro, Jul 20 (EFE).- A few days before the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games begin, the Olympic Park inaugurated five years ago for the Rio de Janeiro 2016 event is still the target of criticism.The Olympic facilities that were the pride of the city five years ago and that cost more than 40 billion reais (about $7.6 billion at the current exchange rate) are today abandoned, degrading and haunted by corruption scandals.Several of its pavilions are now "white elephants," while the fate of the velodrome, the Olympic swimming pools and two of the Rio arenas has yet to be defined.

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. The company is preparing their robot to assist humans at factory assembly lines, to help pick and place different parts together for assembly. CEATEC is Japan's largest IT and electronics trade show, and many manufacturers and innovators show off their latest products at the tech show.
