What is the range of your shooter?

Pretty cool to see a team got camera control to work.

[MikeMascaro]

You have to be against the trailer- it's just a conveyor belt that rolls the balls out.

And yeah we didn't have any problems driving the robot through the camera.

[finman]

yes, we got the camera working quite easily-contrary to the anticipated struggle. as a whole, the control team has had relatively few problems...its those darn mechanics slowing us down... :-p

[DustinWyke]

not bad. not bad at all!

[AnibaS]

This looks really good!

About how long does it take to collect and score the balls?

[Seat Ninja]

I like it. It looks simple and effective.
P.S. I'll see you guys at Annapolis. Good luck.

[MikeMascaro]

It can just drive over balls and collects them right away, you don't need to stop driving to collect and score.
