The humanoid robot CUE6, created by Toyota, has become a record holder, setting a world record for the longest and most accurate basketball throw among its fellows.
Despite the fact that the first attempt ended in failure, the robot showed an amazing result when throwing the ball the second time.
He was able to hit the target from a distance of 24.55 meters, which is 80 feet and 6 inches.
As a result, it was decided to include his name in the Guinness Book of Records.
The title was CUE6's second, having previously made 2,020 consecutive free throws and only stopped after engineers intervened.
If you think that the ball was thrown into the hoop by some kind of catapult, then you are mistaken, in the years that have passed since the robot was created, it has turned into a real humanoid.
According to the developers, their creation has the ability to learn from its own mistakes and is working to improve its accuracy.
CUE6 is also able to recognize patterns, adjusting posture, hand position and punch force in real time – all the same things a human would do.
