The collector is stationary with respect to the robot. If by "ball collector" you mean "ball herder" you are very perceptive!
There is a reason that there is an "off angle" between the fingers and the main arm body. It has to do with playing pinball. One can hardly wack the balls into the chute if the paddles are wacking the ground rather than the balls. The angle allows the axis of the finger pivots to be vertical when the arm is in herding position.
