Mecatronics is a blend of mechanical and electrical engineering with some computer science thrown in. You've got your own u tub channel and facebook page dedicated to poole and billies this is wonderful to have you on the show. So any of us who've heard of coreolus before, whether or not we knew it was an actual person, heard of the coriolus force? Tell mewa, tell me about coriolus and billiards.
What was Coriolis, of the Coriolis Effect, doing at the pool table? On this episode, Neil deGrasse Tyson and co-hosts Gary O’Reilly and Chuck Nice explore the science behind billiards and pool trick shots with billiard physicist Dr. Dave Alciatore.
