Sam,
That is like our manipulator right now except we don't have those long (plastic? fb?) white rods in the front to keep the ball in. We have tried a lot of things but nothing really seems to work. Look at
this video to see how our manipulator worked. We are the large black robot with 2264 on the side.
Was 230 able to pick up balls off the ground to hurdle?
thanks, Vivek
