Re: Pics And Vids! 816 1-31-09!!!!!!!

I don't typically like to give advice on robot design. I assume people know what's best for their own robots. But I think you need to rethink your top roller system. From the videos, it looked like the balls just fell out when they got to the top. Even when you didn't want them to.

If you move the top conveyor roller over and add a second output roller right next to it, you can make the conveyor and output two separate systems and eliminate the balls falling out. The balls would pile up at the top and be ready for dumping when you actually wanted to. Should be an easy fix looking at the design you already have and you still have plenty of time.
