Georgia Tech researchers have developed the first-ever human scale robot that can return a tennis shot. 🎾 High-res cameras and computer vision algorithms allow the robot, assembled using a specialized tennis wheelchair, to track down the ball and hit it back to a human player. It's named ESTHER (Experimental Sports Tennis Robot) after the legendary wheelchair tennis athlete Esther Vergeer who was undefeated in singles for ten straight years. -- https://c.gatech.edu/3OtzoaD | Georgia Tech

Georgia Tech engineers have designed a bioinspired soft robot capable of jumping up to 10 feet high without using legs. Modeled after nematodes, the robot stores and rapidly releases elastic energy, enabling powerful motion with minimal structure. This breakthrough demonstrates how soft materials and bioinspired mechanics can expand the design space for future robotic systems, from exploration to search-and-rescue.
