With the use of a raspberry pi pico and two DC motors, this device can launch a ball for your dog to fetch. It's the perfect weekend DIY project.

Hi, your project is great just one question, how far does the machine send the ball? 
Thanks

Depends on how strong you config the motors, I have them at around 80% max and it will shoot the ball the whole length of our living room (6ish Meters) but I guess it would go 12-15 meters if I had the space.

Dog feet + laminate floors = zero friction

Keeps 'em busy, though. Nice build!
