Robots can play all kinds of games. We have already covered a few of them that play chess, basketball, rock-paper,-scissors, and even badminton. Namiki’s Air-Hockey Robot is also worth a look. It is smart enough to change is strategy depending on your playing style. It uses a 4-axis robotic arms and two high speed cameras to pull it of.

The robot notes the speed and position of your paddle to determine your style and react accordingly. It can detect games at speeds of 500 frames per second. The above video shows it in action.
