متن کاملHitting Back-Spin Balls by Robotic Table Tennis System Based on Physical Models of Ball Motion
In this paper, we develop a robotic table tennis system in the case of the back spin with the same measurement method and the ball models of the aerodynamics and the rebounds as in the study of Nakashima et al. (2011). First, the aerodynamics model is improved for precise prediction of the ball trajectory with data of the flying back-spin ball. Second, a method to determine the racket motion is...
