THIS ROBOT JUST GOT A NEW HAND — AND IMMEDIATELY STARTED TESTING IT Someone throws a tennis ball at the humanoid and it tries to track it, time the movement and catch it with its new robotic hand. It looks like a tiny party trick. But catching a flying object requires vision, prediction, reaction speed and precise finger control to work together in real time. That’s exactly the kind of dexterity humanoids will need before they can reliably use tools, handle fragile objects and work in environments built for human hands. And the caption makes it even better: “Got a new hand for Black Friday.” Be honest — how many attempts do you think it took to get this shot?
