Fido
Our design utilises both the gravitational force and the dual D.C. motors rotating in opposite ways to send the ball forwards. A microswitch is located before the motors in the path of the ball, which activates both motors to allow the ball to reach faster speeds. Each D.C. motor is powered by its own battery for max power. We have enclosed our project with cardstock to prevent accidental damage to the moving parts.
