Should be simpler than that. If the disk is already on its side as they said, flipping them over is as conceptually simple as tilting one wall either direction. We got a prototype doing this over the weekend.

If you're trying to get them right-side up on the right hand side:

|.\..|
|..|.|
|./..| ...<< With the open side left, you open the left wall enough to tip it, then open right so it slides down and out.


|../.|
|.|..|
|..\.| ...<< With the open side right, you just open the right wall so it flops out. (May or may not need to kick the left wall inward, depending on bottom slope and exact geometry).


As far as floor pickup to vertical robot entry, I'll just leave this here: 2012.
