How many balls do you think a GOOD robot will be able to contain? Personaly, I don't think that many, but I might be wrong.

It all depends on what kind of robot you are building and what its function is, you could fit over 40 if you just made a box with nothing in it.

Ok, a robot that can dump or shoot the balls into a trailer

My guess is 13-14.

We're hoping for about 15.....or more, if the human fed hopper idea works out.

With the constraints in robot dimensions, I suspect many human-fed hoppers.:D

I think they'll be built to hold 15-20?
I think "good" robots will probably have stuff going on inside besides just a ball chamber, so they won't be completely filled with balls.

27 of them fit in a 27-inch cube. Plenty of room remains for everything else.
