“Now you and I don’t have shells to crawl into like Bert the Turtle, so we have to cover up in our own way. First you duck, and then you cover. And very tightly you cover the back of your neck.”

4 Questions…

  1. How long does it take to grab a box and turn the bot to aim?

  2. Do the boxes have to be in any orientation or can you grab them anyway they fall?

  3. Can you change the thorw distance?

  4. What else has it thrown?

5

6
