PUMA BeatBot: Runners Can Now Race Against a Robot

Here is a robot that inspires runners to push harder. The PUMA BeatBot is a programmable line-following robot designed to give runners a visual target to beat. Runners just have to enter the time they want to beat, put the robot on the track, and go.
