robots - what next?
- Thread starter Ched
- Start date
How about a robot that can rack the balls? Might solve one of pool`s big problems....
Whats the issue? That electronic digi cue is a big seller looks like so this is a natural progression
There's actually video from korea as 3c is massive there of them lagging with am actual robot and it gets dialed in and leaves the ball frozen to thw rail within a couple shots on the 10fter
Ill post it here if i comw across it again

It's a start, but a long ways to go to playing strategic pool, like obtaining an angle so you can get another angle to break out a ball, etc.
Hopefully, what they learn will have good applications elsewhere.

What's next ? Maybe a robotic exoskeleton that would allow anyone to shoot straight.
Already in the works. Earl will be previewing it soon.
Light years away from a robot that can play one-pocket.
...or one that can kick like Efren.
Ever try to explain to someone how to draw the ball?...it's tough to explain.
...and then they're probably playing with a dead-ass cue.....
...this thing might need a SzamBOTi.

Deep Green Pool Playing Robot in 2010
Already Done in 2010
"Deep Green" pool playing robot who can shoot with a cue and rack the balls.
and
A aiming system for teaching Angles.

Long way to go....but they brought something new to nine-ball...an eleven-ball...
...lotta reprogramming involved if the take a robot from Nevada to the Gulf Coast...
...and then there's new cloth vs broken in or worn out cloth, balls becoming worn....etc.

Exactly.
I guess you can write an algorithm for just about anything, and have a machine to measure every possible parameter, but how do give it feel??? In a controlled environment, I guess it could be done, possibly not in real world scenario like a pool hall.
Although, they are fixing to transplant a human head, here in the next few months :thumbup:
It Could Read the Humidity and Based on Testing If a Table Plays Long or Short, Past Experience Knowledge and Present Play Reactions Adjust It's Playing.
