My robot is hungry, so it is going to eat blocks. I couldn't bring myself to
rely on pushing blocks past the gap in the middle of the field without
getting stuck. My 'eating' mechanism was indeed a challenge to build, but it
is pretty much done now. The only thing I don't like about it is that it is
noisy... It does eat well though (mmmm... blocks). Its amazing what you can
do with the spinning wheels and conveyor idea. Kind of makes me want to
revisit stacking... Anyone want to program my robot for me?
