Researchers build golfing robot that lines up its own putts

Researchers at Paderborn University in Germany have built a robot that uses a Microsoft Kinect 3D camera combined with a neural network to line up putts, IEEE Research reports.

The robot has been named Golfi, and while machines that can hit golf balls are not new, Golfi's ability to line up shots on its own makes it far more complex.
