TV Commercial - Frisbee Throwing Robot
 
The Washington State Lottery has been airing a commercial recently featuring a frisbee launching robot. It's a polished, well produced commercial, so it's not readily clear how much is fact vs fiction. Watch for yourself and decide.

It is a lotto commercial after all... know your limits.

I think that such a robot is easily possible. A bit overkill on the traction though.

Oh, and how'd he get his truck where it is, in front of all those logs? I didn't see him backing up, just driving forward...

I would sure like to build a robot like that, but I'd have it harass the deer eating my shrubbery. Give them wet willies or something...

But, nice commercial anyway.
