Stanford students build basketball-shooting robots
This year's Mechanical Engineering 210 competition, held in front of a large, cheering crowd, featured bots that shoot and dunk as many 'basketballs' as possible in under two minutes. The competition ends a quarter in which the students learn about mechanics, electronics and computer programming.
Groundbreaking innovations that begin in Stanford labs flow freely into private industry to improve human well-being, fuel the economy, and strengthen American competitiveness.
