No that's actually our grabber. We've dubbed it the lampshade. The tetra is guided into the lampshade, lining it up. Then using a quick disconnect actuator from a garden hose, a center 'plunger' in engaged and closing the 3 spider like arms under the clover of the tetra. We use a simple servo to release the arms allowing the tetra to fall into place on the goal.
I'm trying to find a clear picture of the grabber, but feel free to stop by in the pits at the Finger Lakes Regional or at the New York City Regional and anyone from the team will be happy to give you a detailed explanation.
