Thumbs up Re: pic: 1093 conveyor belt

Yes everybody, of course the balls are stored in a hopper (lexan). We decided to use the dual conveyor belt design because it picks up the balls faster (instead of rolling up it gets lifted straight up from both sides). The belt is made of shelf liner (a rubbery material about $5 per 4 foot roll from home depot) which we contact cemented to make loops. A fisher price motor drives each of the belts. We dump out the back (no shooting). And no, it is not that hard to steer the robot onto a ball.
