The Precision Arduino Timing Relay Imaging Controller a.k.a. P.A.T.R.I.C. and a camera robot make this beautiful video, without the usual CGI 🙂
I love the fact that there was so many trail-and-error involved in making the below video.

I already know that soccer robots will rule the world in 10 / 15 years time, but apparently robots are already dominating the table Football world; awesome stuff man.
Now that we are on the subject, any other robotic sports?
YES, they also go head to head in Ping Pong
Or running along with Usain Bolt (but robots found out long ago that wheels are much better then complicated legs!)
And the recent (first) hole in one by a golf robot
In the past there was the talented gymnastic robot
Or the kind a like equestrian robot horses/dogs from Boston Dynamics
And not to forget the cool CGI? boxing robot 😉

They also had WiFi cows;
Funny thing is that temporary network hardware is called: C.O.W. or Cell on Wheels 🙂

1) I came across a very cool offshore solution that I want to share. T
he company, Ampelmann (of course NOT a German company, but a Dutch one 🙂 ) has a killer logo and specializes in offshore access solutions. In other words, how to get safely and easily from 1 ship to a windturbine or another ship at open sea. The video’s (here and here) are simply amazing and one can easily imagine how comfortable it is to use their technology.
2) Talking about spring/damping systems, here’s a cool animated GIF of a competition race car from the Baja 1000
I really love the way it just drops and doesn’t jump up again; nice and smooth.
Other “experiments” with suspensions can be found here and here.
3) On imgur you can find these “12 oddly satisfying Gifs for your pleasure“. The last one is my favorite.
4) I like it when somewhat complicated maters are explained swiftly and clearly; the rolling shutter camera effect.
More explanation can be found here.
5) very cool video from AMZ Formula student team from Switserland. They broke the world record 0 – 100 km/h in 1.513 seconds!!
