Better than Lebron？ Check out AI powered robot

Toyota Motor Corp. unveiled its latest AI-powered basketball robot, CUE7, on Sunday, giving the media a preview during a rehearsal at Toyota Arena Tokyo ahead of its halftime debut at a B.League game.

During the rehearsal, CUE7 demonstrated significantly smoother movement, along with improved dribbling and shooting, compared with earlier versions.

Tomohiro Nomi, head of Toyota’s humanoid robot research unit, said the robot operates entirely on artificial intelligence.

“By using this technology, CUE has become capable of performing complex movements that were not possible before,” Nomi said.

Nomi said advances in AI helped overcome earlier limits in robot development, allowing his team to completely redesign the CUE platform. “I feel like we are now standing at the starting line of a new CUE,” he said.

CUE7 will make its first public performance during halftime at an Alvark Tokyo home game.
