The new version has faster ball return skills, better ball-sensing prediction, and an expanded range of movement. It also delivers AI-powered personalized coaching. As the company explains:

FORPHEUS now features “elbow” and “wrist” movements to place topspin and backspin on the ball. OMRON developers sharpened his vision, which now boasts high-speed image processing by a stereo camera. Using his improved perception and data from a player’s performance, FORPHEUS now compares a player’s form and skill to that of a professional table tennis player, providing personalized coaching.
