Robotic Fencing Partner?

["Fence like a Cat"]

THIRD PLACE (TIE): FRITO -- Fencing Robot Integrated Training Opponent -- Kevin Cornell, Brian Hale, Bonnie VanZile, Eric Waydick
This robot is used as an ideal partner for practicing the sport of fencing. It allows a fencer of any skill level to complete drills that simultaneously involves footwork and swordwork, using various operational modes -- with or without arm, moving or stationary, and with a static or active target array.

"Danger, Will Robinson... Danger! Danger!"

Does anyone recall the Lost in Space episode in which Guy Williams - formerly of Disney's Zorro - does some fencing? I believe it was "electric", so to speak.

I am thinking more in terms of: "Exterminate...exterminate!"
