How fast is it from initiation to contact with the can?
And how accurate do you need to be with lining up?

Nikki is about right with his calculation on timing. There's still some optimizing going on so we're looking to drop that time further.
Accuracy hasn't been an issue in our testing. We guarantee alignment during robot placement and the system is rigid enough that it hits the same spot every time.
