Looks scarily similar...

I think we are going to see a couple more robots with a very similar configuration. We have a very similar concept to you guys, with a couple slight differences to have more control over the balls. Good luck this year!

Thanks, you too! Our awesome engineers from Lockheed Martin are working hard to try and put a viable autonomous package together. We still have camera calibration to optimize, some smoothing functions to reduce spinout, and a few CRio hiccups to iron out, but it looks like we're on our way at least.
