I submitted a story last week I was a little disappointed got no comments or upvotes, but if this (http://thenextweb.com/shareables/2012/11/06/evil-high-speed-robot-hand-proves-humans-doomed-to-be-servants-to-our-coming-borg-overlords/?fromcat=shareables http://thenextweb.com/shareables/2012/11/06/evil-high-speed-...) is what robots in labs can do no, then things will continue to be exciting and interesting as these technologies get commercialized, become hackable and find new uses.... what COULDN'T robotics like this be used for? (that link was the one I submitted if that wasn't clear)

This video is about 3 years old. We should have advanced by now.

Ahh, I remember seeing this video back when it first surfaced. One of my favorite comments I saw somewhere (maybe slashdot?) was that robotic capability is usually insufficient for something like dribbling a ping pong ball ... until it isn't, at which point it can do it hundreds of times a second flawlessly. I'm sure I've paraphrased quite liberally with the comment, but hopefully the intent stands. With sufficient engineering we should be capable of many many things quite soon.
