[Po-ser]

Another thing I thought was nice about our 'bot - at the competition at Hartford, I spotted a lot of teams using gravity feed, some using conveyor belts, and a few using pneumatic pumps to get the balls to feed into their shooters. We used a spiral with a set of brushes in the middle that rotated to brush the balls up the ramp. Our shooter mounts at the top of the ramp, and when we want to shoot, there is a fiber glass flap that we attached at the very top that extends beyond the brushes to slap the balls off the ramp and feed them in. There's no way for them to really go anywhere but from the floor into the goal (if all goes as planned, that is).
