Ping pong ball shooter - Lego Mindstorms

Maple Bear BTM - School annual day - Mar 2015

@anbup I've built something similar in Vex with a 5:1 ratio and it's able to shoot the ball a pretty good distance. After all is said and done, it's extremely inefficient and rattles the bot like a tornado. The screws fall out so quickly that we spend more time rebuilding than we do shooting.

Dude,Are you doing it at WORK?! 0_0

That's much different than the ping pong ball shooter I saw while I was in Tijuana.

very nice

[@araafsabal]

Good Work...:) Nice creativity..:)

[@FloatBuoy]

You guys are brilliant!

[@AnbalaganPugaleesan]

@Linkbomber1 Not much than what I expected. Its less than 5ft. The wheels couldn't push the ball much far, may be you should try with elastic band

[@ZeTall1]

Sounds werid but can i buy one off you how long do they take to make and how much

[@Bluenuhvok765]

That's awesome!

[@victorgr1462]

Its very nice using lego mindstorm material, may you send me the instructions to build this? I already have pieces to made it ; than you! I just want to practice ping pong at my home, thank you!!

[@Linkbomber1]

Just wondering, about how far were you able to throw the ball? I'm thinking of making something similar in Vex and trying to think of the best method to lob/throw a ping pong ball.

He made it himself with lego mindstorm 1.0

i would like to say thats its only half work done here.. coz a pro robo has the launcher wheels mounted vertically as to produce topspin from the upper wheel and backspin from the lower wheel.. with varyin amount of spin.. your launcher can only produce side spins.. if only you could rotate the two wheels in 360 and position them as desired.. and vary the frequency of the feeder it would be a complete robo.. its not that i don appreciate your work but wanted to help.. m a pro and hav used one..

[@YannickDupont]

Any building instructions available?

[@TheClicknScroll]

how much should the gap be between the motors so that the ball can be launched

[@bradjansen1670]

I Found Most Ping Pong Balls Were A Little Less Than 5 Studs Wide

[@AnbalaganPugaleesan]

@ZeTall1 visit lego.com for its price. and how long is based on your imagination.
