Re: Feeder Robots

we did, i guess. We made a bin basically with lexan and pvc. The roller pushes the balls in there. We have a ramp making up one of the sides, and that ramp gets pushed up with a big pneumatic piston. That piston, when it goes us, causes all the balls to get pushed up to the shooter, well when the ramp is up, the balls roll down to the shooter. So, we have an integrated scooper, shooter, and human loading bin if thats what you were asking. Ill try to get pictures, but the pictures i have been able to get from a couple of people on my team are blurry and from the stands at AZ regional. But we do have a fully integrated robot that can do a lot.
