Re: Powered Game Piece Release
It would be wise (and perhaps even required) to design a system that does not require tethering to release a game piece. There are a number of ways to do that, including but not limited to:
1) Software control that always opens the gripper right before the end of the match
2) A backdriveable gripper
3) A pneumatic gripper (releasing the pressure vent valve releases the game piece)
4) Designing some type of "manual override" where you can open the gripper without backdriving the motor.
