Re: SO...alternative to ramps...

Something my team is in the process of designing is a skid plate. So it's like a slanted piece of metal or some material that would hit the barrier before anything else, lifting the robot up so you can still use smaller wheels to get over. It's an interesting application of a wedge in my opinion.
