Re: 10 Balls per second?

What really is the advantage of shooting in all 10 that fast? What do you plan to do afterwards? Sit there? Try and have the robot block another?
I mean, personally, my team will be glad if we can accurately shoot 10 balls within the auto mode time. As to how fast we'll do that, that'll depend on how quickly we setup our system.
I guess this just raised that old speed vs. accuracy thing in my head. But it seems like the accuracy was good here eh?
It also seems like all the balls were shot from the same point (they all seemed to follow a close arch) what about the advantage to being able to shoot while moving? (did I say that out loud...)
I'm not trying to be negative, it looks really kool (assuming it's even a robot ), I'm just trying to toss some thoughts out there...
