ICYMI: Internet of balls, telepresence tourists and more
Today on In Case You Missed It: A new basketball has a tracking chip that can tell the difference between a swish and airball. It also syncs with an app that tracks stats and lets the user know how they’re doing. Now even the ultimate staycation lazybums can still tour museums and famous spots around the US with telepresence robots. Here’s hoping they don’t meet the same fate as HitchBot. And Tesla has some competition from Porsche, as it unveils its concept car for an all electric luxury ride.
Not at all tech, but definitely entertaining, check out the video from the Chinese Super League ping pong championships.
If you come across any interesting videos, we’d love to see them. Just tweet us with the #ICYMI hashtag @engadget or @mskerryd.
