Re: Picking Up Upside-down Totes?
My team decided to go with a pincer style grabbing mechanism, and we decided to use a material similar to the grippy stuff on tennid rackets with a bearing on the "hand" part so no matter which way grabbed, it will turn right side up because of how the weight is distributed.
