Re: Funneling Balls
We won't have the 11'' problem, and we have a long base robot.

Re: Funneling Balls
Why do you need to pick up off the wall? Just let it fall, and pick it up off the floor.

Re: Funneling Balls
From past experience with games with balls, balls always seem to collect along the wall .

Re: Funneling Balls
Better yet there are a lot of corners this year. On one side of the field there is 4 bump/bridge corners, 2 wall/bridge corners, 2 wall/wall corners, and 2 wall/fender corners. After play catalyst and watching past games, getting balls out of a corner will be pretty important.

Re: Funneling Balls
The space between the two is almost 12.5. This is not our only means of collecting balls. They funnel into a conveyor belt system that has a wheel with fingers. They only helping us during hybrid when we go to tip the bridge. They will ensure that any balls on the bridge will be funneled into the collection system, and not miss the opening.
We'll be pulling it up and collecting balls normally for the rest of the game. |
