I’ve never had a Fanta in my life, but this demonstration of ridiculous motion control from ABB robotics has hypnotised me into wanting whatever the hell “Exotic Thrill” flavoured Fanta is.

Through a simple program, ABB’s precise industrial robots are able to maintain tolerances tighter than 1mm—even at super speeds. As our own Brian Lam noted: “it’s like the robot equivalent of chewing bubble gum and patting your head and rubbing your stomach.” [ABB via BotJunkie]
