This year's challenge involves a roughly 3.5' diameter ball being repeatedly knocked off, under, and over a 6.5' tall barrier while racing the robot around an oval race track. At the end of the round, there are bonus points for returning the ball to the top of the as shown in the first photo below. Here is the FIRST video describing the challenge .
Right now, we're exploring possibilities of using extendable arms, suction, and pneumatics to pick up and maneuver the ball.We'll post our thoughts & progress on the challenge soon.
