[robocup-small] Height of the dribbler

[Alireza Haghshenas]

Hi.

No! actually you can calculate, according to another rule (how much of the
ball can be covered in the robot's convex hull from above), the exact
maximum for your dribbler height (it depends on the radius of your
dribbler). But don't think about the backward force generated by the
spin-back, this is the trivial function of a dribbler and is not prohibited
by any law. The law bans side dribblers that teams in the past used, in
order to force the ball in the center of the robot.

Hi folks,

According to the rules (section: Law 4-Robotic Equipment\Dribbling), the
force, exerted by dribbling mechanism, on the ball should be perpendicular
to the ground. Assuming that it is a cylindrical type bar, this requires
the center of the bar should be at the height of ballRadius, right?
Besides, dribbling device cannot cover the ball at all.

Is it really the case for all the teams?

Although this is a simple question, it may affect the design of the robots
considerably.

Thank you for your interest...
