Third, what are the vacuum generator and suction cup for? Will they actually hold onto the ball?

....Somehow I'm willing to bet that this isn't quite close to their real robot...

Note the robots in the background, how they're all shiny machined aluminum and metal, and how this one seems to be mainly wood, and made out of all wood parts. I would venture to guess that it's a semi-prototype thing that was thrown together in a very short time...

Of course, I could be wrong, but I don't think so
