Cool! This is the sort of cutting edge design stuff that you don't see often here on CD. It looks like this could end up being a lot more simple than a coaxial swerve, and it looks really well engineered. I really love the machining too.
If you do run this as part of a swerve, would the two radial bearings on the top and bottom of the shaft take the weight of the robot, or does this assembly go on top of other bearings that supported the robot? Also, any plans for integrating a steering motor into this assembly? Finally, if you want to put encoders on the drive motors, will there be some other slip ring assembly to get the signal out?
