(...) Hello Jordan, Thanks a lot for the tip! This is an amazinly simple and effective way to serialize a ball flow. According to my experiments, there is a little thing to add to your explanations: the narrow ramp level must be sufficiently lower (...) (16 years ago, 4-Jul-08, to lugnet.robotics)

GBC module creators tend to independently reinvent the same hopper solutions used in factories. Some of them shake, many of them have an agitator spinning inside it to loosen the pieces, but the simplest just use gravity and a change of direction. (...) (16 years ago, 2-Jul-08, to lugnet.robotics)

Maybe a look into actual GBC designs and their approaches to transportation might prove useful (?). (Ok, it's for LEGO balls instead of plates) (URL) Nachricht----- Von: news-gateway@lugnet.com [mailto:news-gateway...ugnet.com] Im Auftrag von John (...) (16 years ago, 2-Jul-08, to lugnet.robotics)

George, I think the NXT would be an excellent way to get your son involved in robotics. And, it should do just fine in that competition. That's pretty much what it was designed for. Don't worry about a lack of experience with Mindstorms. I'm sure (...) (16 years ago, 30-Jun-08, to lugnet.robotics)

What I'm trying to do is inspired by the feeding mechanism of (URL) trying to feed 1x1 plates into an assembly line. I've built several hoppers to hold a few hundred pieces each. I've got a chute design so that the pieces slide down without room to (...) (16 years ago, 27-Jun-08, to lugnet.robotics)
