For your information, Project Ace is a robot that can play ping pong on its own using AI developed by Sony AI. It comes with 9 cameras to enable it to track the movement of the ball and the player in 3D. The AI will compute the movement of the ball at a speed of 20 m/s and 160 rotations per second before it then provides input to the controlled robot.
Moreover, its capabilities were tested against 5 elite players and 2 professional players. It won 3 out of 5 matches with one against 1 professional player. This was the first time a robot had defeated a professional ping pong player.
