Honestly, the ball shifter requires a lot less force to shift than a dog shifter does so it might be plausible, but I still think I'd have to see one working to believe it.
Our team toyed around with the idea of using linear actuators (Electrical solenoid actuators) to shift this year, hoping we could avoid using pneumatics. The idea never got beyond the concept stage (and electrical solenoid actuators that comply with the rules are apparently quite hard to find).
