You know. Just driving the robot around the shop..picking up balls shooting shots. Practicing balancing quickly. The usual.

In the end.
Hybrid mode capability.
We have 8" wheels 6WD.
Tower style ball feeding.
Lazy Susan style articulated turret.
In a perfect world it will be automatic tracking.
Automatic distance compensating shooter.
Has special arms for lowering the bridge.
At this moment in time the maximum tested shot is 25 feet.
Though for all intents and purposes until I have 100% accuracy from there we won't be shooting from that distance.
