I also want to touch on the fact that 47(51) did not come up with the swerve system. Steered wheel systems have been around for quite some time in academic robotics. In FRC, however, they were pioneered by 47(51) in 1998.

Now, someone correct me if I'm wrong but I believe 67 was one of the first teams to use "omni" wheels back in 1998.
