2. Whats your hopper goign to look like?
3. Are you goign to be able to catch the balls from the corral?

Thank you for the compliments! To answer questions without giving away what the robot does....
1. Pressure sounds cool to me. With my past experiences with rollers, the best way to pick up balls like that is by getting a solid pinch on the ball, and eliminating as much of a sharp curve into the mechanism as possible.
2. eh...hopper?
3. Well that depends. I'm sure in some twisted and demented way, we could do it. But im not betting that we will bother....never say never though!
