Historically, farming has been slow to implement available technology, Now that is all changing, and drones are at the forefront.

Automation is being implemented in almost every industry, and now ping pong can be added to the list. Omron’s AI-enabled table tennis tutor was one of the most impressive pieces of technology on the show floor. ‘Forpheus’ has been turning attendees’ heads with its natural reflexes and elite use of machine learning.
