Surely you have solutions for dealing with the bump

It does go over the bump, quite smoothly.

Not entirely settled.

Right now we are trying to think through how using a robot-centric camera to aid the driver in blind areas of the field would mesh with a field-centric driver input. Whatever we decide our drivers are eager to log the hours needed to master the controls. It's been years (2008, 2010) since we've done an omni-directional drive-train, and this thing is just fun to drive.


AR doesn't mean "assault rifle". AR stands for armalite

Doesn't AR stand for Augmented Reality? That'd be a much cooler control scheme and driver interface...

Actually just 3 extra, one is in use.

Not always. That is true for the AR-15, but if someone mentions an AR in the context of an FPS, they are talking about an assault rifle.
