An actuator is configured to release the projectile from the intake end of the chute into the launch end of the chute after a pre-determined time has elapsed. One or more wheels, rotated by the one or more motors, are configured to launch the projectile from the launch end of the chute.

Claim (Index 6):
The interactive fetching device of  claim 1 , wherein the projectile is retained at a retaining location that is inward relative to a wall of the shell prior to being automatically transported to the launch portion.
