i suspect that it extends the side arms that come out to help with ball collection. the side arms are folded back against the side of the robot in this shot.

For those of you who did see it, what did you think of it, what do you think that we could have done differently and possibly suggest some team things that we could do better next year.

P.S. If someone can tell me how to put picture on a I will do that as soon as I can.
