Toyota, based in Japan, created basketball robot Cue 3 which can shoot three-pointer. The six-foot-10 machine made five of eight three-pointer shots in a demonstration. Toyota's robot computes as a three-dimensional image where the basket is, using sensors on its torso, and adjusts motors inside its arm and knees to give the shot the right angle and propulsion for a swish. The machine is still some way off being able to compete alongside professional NBA players such as famed long-distance shooter Steph Curry (left), as it is still unable to dribble or jump - essential skills for a basketball player of any level.
