Re: Team 25 2008 Unveiling

[quote=Ryan Dognaux;708677]Great hurdling, but I will echo what others have said, I worry about your ability to acquire the trackballs. Someone could pretty easily push the ball out of the way while you're trying to push it into a wall / an object. /QUOTE]

But cant that be said with just about any collection device? And since manipulator contact outside the footprint is legal and expected I anticipate seeing all the long fingers and arms getting entangled and bent with ease. Of course if you are wasting time chasing us to keep the ball away then you aren't hurdling either. Believe me- the collection is MUCH easier than our original attempt in the beginning of the video shows (Thats why we put it there)

Time and performance will tell.
