00:00These robots could be training the athletes of tomorrow.
00:03Robots aren't just working in factories anymore.
00:06They're learning to fight, train, and compete.
00:09These humanoid fighters, for example, are trained using motion data from real kickboxers.
00:14For now, they are controlled remotely by humans.
00:16But they still have to land punches and stay balanced while taking hits.
00:21Even with some delayed reactions, it's easy to imagine them evolving into useful sparring partners.
00:27They even took part in the world's first humanoid robot games,
00:30where robots from 16 countries competed in events like kickboxing, running, and football.
00:37Even badminton players might be getting a robot training partner.
00:40This robot can play badminton with impressive coordination and accuracy.
00:45It uses reinforcement learning, a type of AI where the robot improves by trial and error.
00:51By combining vision, movement, and arm control, it predicts the shuttlecock trajectories,
00:56navigates the court, and returns shots with precision.
