Sab-BOT-age has struggled over the possessor, without being able an effective device.
I would like to explore a completely different approach. Team 103 Cybersonics has an effective vacuum-type possessor. There are two units, left and right, allowing space for a central kicker. Vacuum is provided by two axial 3-blade propellers (L&R) each driven by an ungeared FisherPrice motor. Two rollers (L&R) within the vacuum plenum contact the ball, allowing it to roll on the floor while in possession.
I will work first in Inventor to develop this concept for DEWBOT VI.
