This is one step closer to much-needed prostheses for amputees. Kinda like I, Robot. It never ceases to amaze me how there’s always someone just around the bend with something better/faster than what someone just designed.

Nobody would watch bball with robots after a week of novelty.
Also the speed is probably only possible with very light objects, foam balls, the heavier it gets the slower it gets since otherwise the strength needed would grow exponential, and then the drives/actuators would not be able to move so fast, fast yes but not adaptive and at the video’s speed I bet, albeit still faster than humans I think.
The movies take a lot of liberties with physics.

Remember the scene in “Aliens” where Lance Henriksen does that knife trick between Bill Paxon’s fingers?
