Re: Shooting a curveball?

I have to agree with Edwin Luciano concerning the video (From the comments section).

Hot girl. Football. Physics. What else could you ask for from a video?

Just 2 things:

Add robots doing it...And I sure would have paid a bit more attention back in Mr. Martin's Physics class in the early 1970's for sure.

People yesterday were telling me the 2 boulder auto would rarely be done because of a couple of inches of worry, and you guys are talking about shooting the 10" ball with a 4 wheel shooter speeding up one side of the ball faster than the other using a curveball type arc up from the corner to increase the high goal aperture a mere 3" or less. (I agree that both can be done simply using software code probably pretty easily). Amazing what can happen if you just put physics to the test, you work with the physics, and you just don't attempt to violate the physical laws of nature.
