Re: Picking up from both sides

Our team was thinking of the same thing; we decided to do pickup from both sides because it synergies greatly with a swerve (or any other omnidirectional) design. On a swerve especially, having the ability to pick up without turning saves valuable time on a match, and, assuming that your bot can get balls through its system quickly, can starve the opposing team of scoring objects.
