In case you missed it, a couple of weeks ago, a team of researchers presented QIBBOT, a teleoperated boxing robot capable of mimicking the movements of a human in real-time.
Inspired by the 2011 science fiction movie Real Steel, which also features remote-controlled mechanical boxers, QIBBOT showcases an impressive latency of merely 12 milliseconds, positioning it as a formidable contender for the title of the world's fastest teleoperated robot.
Weighing in at 140 kilograms (around 310 pounds), this robot employs a combination of a conventional feedback controller and a newly developed feedforward controller, enabling it to respond to motion commands reactively and with precision.
