Having a throwing bot in 2011 we figured we could test how the new balls work on a goal.. Enjoy!

out of pure jealousy I am going to unnecessarily analyze your video...

Does your throwing arm extend more than 14" past the outer perimeter??? If so that would be in violation of [G21]!!!

Why did you throw tubes in 2011?

I'm guessing: to get tubes from the loading station/lane to the other end of the field effectively and accurately.

I wonder what your regional ref will think when he sees an almost identical robot as last year.

I'm assuming it can pick up balls on its own, but it looks like it could have some issues with arm extension and with target tracking. Nice robot.
