Toyota Unveils New 7-Foot Tall Robot
During halftime of a basketball game in Japan, Toyota unveiled its towering CUE7 robot—a 7-foot-2, 74 kg wheeled humanoid that rolled onto the court to showcase its shooting skills. The crowd watched as the high-tech machine calmly lined up a free throw and sank it with impressive precision, highlighting its advanced programming and balance. However, when it attempted a longer set shot from beyond the three-point line, the ball clanged off the rim, drawing a mix of cheers and laughs from the audience at the robot’s very human-like miss.
