Re: auto vs. manual loading zone, which one?

The Friarbot has a pneumatically-powered claw that opens and closes. In competition, we exclusively used the automatic loading station, opening the claw to grab a tetra and then closing it again to withdraw. I don't know quite how a human could put a tetra on our (opened) claw with the robot disabled - it would probably be possible, but we've never tried.
