Sharpa's ping-pong playing, blackjack dealing humanoid is working overtime at CES 2026 The company's super dexterous robotic hand, SharpaWave, allows it to pull individual playing cards from a deck. There were no idle hands at Sharpa's CES booth. The company's humanoid may have been the busiest bot at show, autonomously playing ping-pong, dealing blackjack games and taking selfies with passersby. The hand has 22 active degrees of freedom, according to the company, allowing for precise and intricate finger movements. It mirrored my gestures as I wiggled my hand in front of its camera, getting everything mostly right, which was honestly pretty cool.
