Can we get some details on this? Looks cool how heavy is it?

Re: pic: Our Canon...So Far
 

Just keep this in mind

Range /= Accuracy

Wait is this for you robot? This looks kinda heavy. Yes, details please. How much space does that take up?

Re: pic: Our Canon...So Far
 

It made a fairly consistent scoring once good angles were found (for a prototype). It isn't finish yet so stay posted for new pictures. :D

Re: pic: Our Canon...So Far
 

a video will hopefully be up soon

I look forward to seeing it! As far as I know, no other teams have posted any video or photos showing shooting Orbit Balls. Thanks!

No video for you Greg. Because I say so. :)

It sure does look pretty, but what's the reasoning behind the barrel?

Re: pic: Our Canon...So Far
 

My dogma ate your canon.

Re: pic: Our Canon...So Far
 

Well its not finished, but as of now all it is doing is pinching the balls and aiming.
(I'm on programming...so its all magical to me, lol)

Re: pic: Our Canon...So Far
 

wow thats a massive cannon.... does that fit the size requirements for the robot?

Re: pic: Our Canon...So Far
 

Yup...:yikes:

actually the canon isn't too big, and the mounting system isn't permanent (prototype...)

Re: pic: Our Canon...So Far
 

So the wheels that actually do the shooting are mounted solid and just the barrel turrets? Sounds pretty neat.
