Deep Green, the robot that plays pool
This robot is able to both place the balls and shoot them in the right holes afterwards.
The same deveplopment team has also made some kind of augmented reality, where they use laser beams to show the possible paths of the pool balls you are about to hit. Watch the video to see a demonstration.
This pool-playing robot was developed at Vision lab in Queens University.

Voluntary Milking System (7:54)
This robotic system will let the cows in a farm voluntary submit them selves to a robotic milking process.
Using this system, the cows will decide the milking time on its own. The whole milking process must be automated 100 %, because the cows can choose to be milked at any time.
The advanced system includes a robotic arm for the milking process, the milking machine itself and a gate system to control cows coming in and out. With an ID sensor in the cows, the system indentifies each cow before milking. This will ensure proper milking intervals and monitoring of the cows health.

Exoskeleton video from Sarcos
This video shows a prototype exoskeleton in action, and you will be amazed by the result. This will be used for military to create soldiers with super-human powers.
This technology will make a difference in both military and civilian aspects. The exoskeleton will help a human do more in longer time with less effort.
The possibilities for a disabled person with this technology is also obvious.
