Re: automated can crushers
Ya, they did something like that on this show on DIY Robot Rivals. If you've never heard of the show, it's not like Battlebots at all. Two college teams compete to build a robot in a day that can accomplish a task and then compete. But on this one episode, they had to build a can crusher, but they had it manual so when they pushed a buttom when the can was underneath the pneumatic crusher, they had it crush the can, they were pretty cool. You could also do something like that and have like a switch or something to detect when the can was under the crusher and have that activate it, but then if anything goes underneath it while the thing is on, it'll crush it...But that sounds like a really cool project to do.
