Re: pic: Robonauts' Magnum Shoots 3 Pointers with WNBA Comets

In the continuing effort for Texas teams to expose every corner of the Lone Star Region to robotics and engineering education, the Robonauts' Magnum made an appearance at a WNBA Houston Comets game recently to shoot some 3 pointers with the ladies.

A short video of "string music" can be viewed at www.HoustonRobotics.org. Magnum shot in manual mode although he had some thoughts about using the camera to track the shot clock. During the 45 second demo, Magnum made a handful of shots. During practice, Magnum made anywhere from 5 to 15 shots in 45 seconds and could sink shots from almost half court.

It was a lot of fun for everyone involved. Hopefully this is just the beginning of many, many high school, college, and NBA basketball half time robotics education demonstrations around the country from all the great shooters that were born during the Aim High challenge.

Has anyone won the NBA Krispy Kreamers Challenge?,
