Robotic Cheerleaders Introduced by Korean Baseball Team
A Korean baseball team introduced robotic cheerleaders called Fanbots to boost players morale and improved the atmosphere at their matches. These cheering robot rides high on the emotions involved while watching a match. It's not easy being a fan of the Hanwha Eagles - most fans are subject to ridicule because of the team's poor performance. But it doesn't matter anymore if Hanwha Eagles supporters aren't able to make it to the stadium - they can now control robotic versions of themselves through an online interface and even upload their photographs on to screens on the bots faces, as a personal touch. The bots are designed to cheer, chant and even perform a Mexican wave, but unlike their real-life counterparts, the bots will never invade the pitch.
