Ultra High Speed Robot Reflexes

Robots catching and dribbling balls at speeds unreal for us, puny humans. One more sign that the robot apocalypse is near and that the singularity is approaching.

M'eh - notice how the robot can't compensate for the fact that the ball went about 3 inches out of range on one bounce? I'm not so impressed that a machine can bat around a ball very quickly in an 8-inch square, confined, controlled area in a lab. I'll be impressed when a robot can do that on a basketball court with 6 sweaty guys tossing that ball around all over the place at random intervals...

Extremely impractical, but hey, just imagine what those evil mud-hut-living bastards who have apparently been declared our enemies would think to be seeing giant robots playing high-speed volleyball in their back yards!

The dribbling was pretty impressive but the catching? Not exactly super-human, I opened the fridge just this morning and a bottle fell from a lower shelf which I just saw out of the corner of my eye but I grabbed it before it could fall with no problems (and this is something any developed Humans with some degree of physical ability can do). That's trickier than grabbing a foam block that's thrown in the air if you ask me.
