Final Design

Our final design consisted of a car on top of the table and two plates fastened in the slot to score there as well. We had a basket on the back of our car that could be raised and lowered so that we could get balls behind our car and drag them. It then had a scoop on the front of the car that could push balls as we went forward. This allowed us to get both balls in front of our car and behind it and drag them over the opposing hole to score. The major issue our car had was getting over the center strip in the middle with the balls on it. 

Our bot in the slot consisted of a linkage made of pbc to score balls and a extending arm with a ratchet on it to push the flipper open. The linkage was powered by a motor that would push balls into the hole. When the linkage began to move it would release a string that was attached to our ratchet and this would release our extendable arm that was powered by two compressed springs. This arm could then not be moved back in because of our ratchet. This allowed us to block the flipper and score with the use of only one motor.
