E.A.R.L. Bowling Robot
The first time we saw a robot that could bowl a strike, it was CGI. It turns out there’s been a real bowling robot all along. E.A.R.L. was built by the United States Bowling Congress to test bowling balls. The machine picks up a ball, spins it between its grippers, then rolls a perfect down the alley. E.A.R.L. once bowled over 800 points across three games.
