Re: How to pick up a frisbee

I was thinking suction power for a bit...

however, it takes our 5 horsepower shop vac being 3/8 of an inch away from the frisbee for it to lift it up. (Though once it is lifted, its staying put.)

So, considering that a robot definitely isn't going to generate a 5 horsepower vacuum, I think that its out of the question.
