Digital integration in sports has been taking place for many years, but the LDRIC Robot Golfer that hit the green at the 2016 Waste Management Phoenix Open took an impressive golf shot that rivals even pros. Scoring a hole in one shot on the 13th hole, the LDRIC Robot Golfer beat the course with ease that's set at a par 3 for human players.
The LDRIC Robot Golfer was created by the Golf Laboratories, which is a research company that looks into the ways golf is played and measured. The perfect golf shot by the LDRIC Robot Golfer gives the creation the title of the world's first robot hole in one, which the developers of the innovation are no doubt proud of.
