Let's Make Robot!

Finally , long summer vacation was over.
And new period of university was started.

In this term, I have to take part in the special class " Machine Creation".
Objective of this class is create a robot that can do some performance.

So, our team (almost my opinion) decided to make a Batting Machine! Of course it can hit a ball that is thrown by pitcher.
Pitching Machine was usually seen around there. But I never seen a Batting Machine.

However I googled "Batting Machine" and watched wonderful Batting Robot made by Tokyo University. If you don't know it , please refer to "http://www.k2.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/fusion/SprayHitting/index-j.html" .

Although batting robot already exist in Japan, we decide to make a batting robot.
So, in day after tomorrow I have to present this batting robot to our teacher and classmate.
After a long time, I used 3DCAD " Pro/Engineer " to design batting robot.
Under picture is batting robot that I designed. I think this is cute, isn't it?
