Week 9 (4/22 - 4/26) Outcome

We've since added these picer-like things to the end affector. Now, picking up the ball is significantly faster - we don't even have to ram the ball against a wall anymore. Still pretty hard though.

Unfortunately, throughout this week, we've been encountering many technical problems, and the effectiveness of our end affector has declined. Near the end of the week, to fix these problems, we've started by redoing our gear tower. But, we still have a long way to go, and only so much time.
