Hold onto your tennis whites, folks, because UBTECH’s Walker S2 humanoid robot has just decided to trade its laundry-folding finesse for a proper thrashing on the court. Yes, the bipedal marvel, previously content with domestic bliss, has now picked up a racquet and is serving up a storm. This isn’t just a bot knocking a ball about; we’re talking about a mechanical maestro that can predict a ball’s trajectory with unnerving precision, scuttle into position like a seasoned pro, and unleash a swing with enough welly to keep a rally going. Forget your dodgy knee or the sun in your eyes; your excuses for a future tennis trouncing are about to get a whole lot more silicon-powered and, frankly, a bit embarrassing.
