Is the picture viewable?

The rollers are ABS riding on bearings with grooves turned into them and polycord riding on it. Timing belt driven.

Re: A new way to Score?

i wouldn't be so quick to try and score a ton of balls at the same time. remember, the human players can only move so fast and you don't want to incur penalties because your robot is "too" good.

Re: A new way to Score?

Hmmm

So, if we put this cartoon robot into our 5th Gear simulation, and we claimed that the easy-to-draw cylinders along its sides were for moving balls; we wouldn't be too far away from reality? I drew it Wednesday.
