Rollin' Justin Learns to Throw like a Robot
Our colleague Rollin "Justin turned out in the old Adage about teaching old robots new stuff tricks wrong back in April, when I learned to catch the balls with the tracking of moving objects, the calculation of their flight paths and then snap closed his cold metal claws of the moment of impact. Now he 's-besting himself, thanks to a handful of improvements transmitted to him due to his fleshy master German Aerospace Agency. During the upgrade are the improvement of the dynamic performance of old Justin – he is now 1.5 times faster in hand, thanks to a new gear ratio, helps to catch both sides of his game stuff, with the ability to actually throw. He has also adopted a more Flattering moniker agile Justin. Video evidence of his new found skills after the jump.
