What's a better emerging technology than robots? This is the 21st century; robotics is a growing field and is having a dramatic impact on our society. Automated process are replacing humans and eliminating jobs, not to mention making us lazy... unless the robot is training you for an Olympic sport!
The Robo-Pong 2050 uses digital technology to deliver computerized ping pong training (table tennis), which as Robo_pong will tell you, is a great workout. The Newgy company produces robotics that actually enhance personal fitness... it's like a robotic personal trainer launching ping pong balls at you with "deadly accuracy." The 2050 also hooks up to a PC, so you can customize your own oscillation, sequence, and launch rate for a training session and then share your drills with other players. You can even select back or front spin on shots! Amazing, the convergence of modern emerging technology and ping pong. We truly do live in the space-age... THE FUTURE IS NOW!

170 balls per minute? Wow, this is one serious ping pong drill robotic machine.
