I remember a 2008 robot which had a pneumatically actuated drive system which would turn all the wheels 90 degrees (to help with fast laps).


Anyone remember that bot?

I've looked all over and can't seem to find it with any search terms! my search-engine-fu is weak!

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks!

I may be remembering wrong, but I thought 135 showed a pneumatically turned swerve module in 2010 that seems to meet your description. Can't seem to verify it at the moment.
