Castrol develops robot that kicks football at over 200 km/h
Posted By: Bharat BhushanSharma | Jan 27 2010
We’ve seen Cristiano Ronaldo score in set pieces, apparently from all parts of the park. With a similar objective, ahead of the FIFA world cup, Castrol Japan has done a Robotic Ronaldo (Okay, that’s my own way to put it). The monstrous robot wouldn’t be seen taking the field, but that doesn’t mean its ability to kick a football at speeds of 200 kilometers per hour or more should be marked anything but amazing. While I figure out the use of the free kicking robot, you hit the jump to see the robot in action.
