Granted the tesla robot is too large and doesn't meet competition requirements, but it ought to be able to pick up plastic balls of various colors and sort them into baskets better than any robot built by HS students, yes?
That is a "general purpose robot" ... that's the idea.
The balls aren't even hard to hold for a robotic arm like say... strawberries. You can just grab them with a wide range of forces ... no sensitivity needed.
